Hi Dr Franz,

If you have the time, could you please tell me your opinion about my x-rays i took yesterday and how my healing is going? Maybe a rough idea about how much time i might need? i asked my local doctor as well as my Russian doctor, but your opinion would be just as valuable.

I uploaded them just now in this thread on the bottom:

http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=320.msg13342#new

I did the surgery, Mars 01 this year, so almost 5 months since then. Lengthened about 4.3 cm, my left leg is a bit behind due to shlatters disease (i did less weight bearing on it in the early LL phase) and i added 1.5 mm extra on it in consolidation phase to lessen the discreprency.

Thank you in advance would appreciate your opinion alot

Your doctor will be the best person to help you there. But your healing seems to be going well.

I'm sorry, but it would not be a good idea to get involved im advising when your frames should come off. I can only really do that with my own patients. But the average is around 1.5-2 montha per centimetre. My guess is you'll be closer to the lower end of the range.

Hi Dr Franz,
I have been emailing you for a few days. The South Africa high commission is asking me for the surgery schedule, and the estimated cost. I think these are the last documents that they ask from me before I could get the visa and go to SA.
