Quote from: more on June 15, 2021, 11:06:06 AMI am wondering what kind of athlete You were ? athlete are more flexible than the others and you are just 30.
Why the most Dr. Baldu's patients having pin site infection? is there any hygiene problem ?

Pinsite infections are rather common. The weather is also muggy/humid, so it's not great for bacterial transmission. Also hotel staff are d*ckheads. Not the team - the hotel; they wont change my f*cking bedsheets. I don't know what their problem is.

Quote from: Fiveandsomething on June 15, 2021, 10:37:40 AMThanks man. I found it strange how I kept telling my friend that I’d never felt so defeated in my life and upon reading your diary you used the same lingo. I’m feeling optimistic just at the fact that I’m leaving the damn hospital. It’s like a phase is over with.

Yeah I am from Texas..that’s good to hear man we can swap some stories and confirm our craziness cos God knows I had never been in so much pain I my life. Looking forward to meeting you both. Are you both at the hotel? BOF suites I think
I bet you feel pretty f*cking dumb now hahaha. Don't worry, you'll be happy you did it in 3 weeks. I'm in my 4th week and I'm finally feeling good about the process - I had a lot of regret but they've all dissipated. I'm really happy to have left the life I was living behind. After I'm done here, the ball's entirely in my court - I won't have my height to blame for my shortcomings, social or interpersonal or whatever. No lie, I feel physically crippled right now for some very obvious reasons, but inside I feel pretty unstoppable. 

The first two weeks will brutal man, hang in there. Week two you'll get the clicking pains, but they only last 2-4 days/leg. The pain literally halves per day. Just a warning, cause it's the next challenge you'll be facing. It's the real price we pay for doing the impossible.

Try your best at getting up and moving round. Eat a ton of protein and yogurt - avoid milk! I don't know what the deal is but it made one of my infections worse a long time ago. I've also been warned by the guys here to avoid the milk. I don't know - I guess it's not as cleanly processed as it is in the states. Moving and eating rocks for your bone healing - especially since you're gonna want to do more than 1mm/day. Unless I guess you love Turkey lol.

Anyways I'll PM you my number. Catch you soon man.

LMAOO I just painfully laughed man. I definitely was blaming my bestfriend for not talking me out of it lol I can’t imagine a worser pain Jesus Christ. I’m looking forward to talking to ya so hurry and send that number. I’m already here at the hotel. I know it’s going to be tough man and you really hit the nail on the head with that statement you made. To anyone reading this, if just the Pain you go through for this extra 3 inches doesn’t cure your insecurities, I don’t think anything will quite frankly. I think of people who went through the surgery twice and God bless their heart, nothing against them but I don’t believe that I am mentally strong to put myself through this a second time. Hell if it were up to me I’d have this stuff removed and be on the way back to the states on the next flight out but gotta SEE IT THROUGH. That’s a poem I read as well. That and some motivational songs..speeches by Eric Thomas about how pain is temporary but the reward is permanent.

I am happy for you man. I have so much more to say but we’ll have to keep that through personal messages. Again looking forward to meeting you as well and everyone else quite frankly, cos I know this is not a easy process and anyone who opts  to go this route definitely had insecurities that I hope gets better following this.

Ughhh lol

It feels like forever ago, but once you hit day 35ish you don’t feel that bad about motivation because you are close to 7.5/3’
Just make sure you don’t get pinsite infections like us, they suck, don’t touch or massage around your pinsite when it’s sore, I think that’s what caused it for me
