The $15,000 package, does that include physical therapy or is that just the surgeon fee?

How often do you do PT?

Edit Post

no does not include physical therapy. just the surgery is 15k usd. i do pt abt 5-7times a week. 2 hrs per session.

13 days to frame removal, finally my journey is coming to an end. I wonder what frame removal feels like, i heard it feels like heaven and my legs would feel light after taking off the 2.5kg frames off me. Can’t wait to start walking again! Legs hurt every morning still… any tips to relieve the morning pains

Edit Post

i will try sleeping without the air conditioner and see if legs hurt in the morning. It will be hot but i rather that then the leg pains i get in the morning

Edit Post

sleeping without A/C is better. little to no pain in my legs this morning

Any xrays? Wish you all the best health

Edit Post

i will be taking my last x ray in4 days.

took my x ray today legs are at 3.8cm each and the callus formation is already visible. Dr Doan said that based on my healing i could go for 8cm, but i had rather not. Very happy with the results today and will be lengthening at a slightly faster rate for the next 6 days and then FRAME REMOVAL!
