Quote from: azman on May 08, 2019, 05:48:53 PMHi Jolien,

How you feeling lately?  Hope all is well.

Can you tell me more of your stay at the Theseus rehabilitation center?

How was the staff?

How was the food?

Are there a  jacuzzi there for sore muscle for internal Precice or is that no good for CLL?

Where did you stay after leaving Theseus?

Did Dr. Giotikas assistant help find you a place?

Thanks

For me the staff was a little inexperienced.

The food is not good haha hospital food so I ordered sometimes delivery food.

They dont have a jacuzzi, they do have a swimming pool!

I now stay at an appartement where I get private physiotherapy.

If you want the assistent can you help finding a place yes.

Kind regards

Jolien

Is the quality of physical therapy in Greece not good?  Do you have physical therapy in addition to the physical therapy provided by the hospital?  Do you know the price etc?  And how are you doing now?  It seems to have reached 5 cm, but I am worried about walking etc.

I kinda feel like the quality of the hospital in athens that giotikas does the surgery in isnt the best thing ?
can u tell us a true opinion about that ?
is it a clean professional place or more basic?
and the Dr himself is he strict or does he listen & help & has alot of knowledge ?

Personally I was not very happy with the physiotherapy I got at Theseus. I now have private physiotherapy at home. I left Theseus because it was to expensive fot another mont. I CAN WALK WITHOUT WALKER!!!!!! My leg magically started working again properly after my frames came off!!! I'm the luckiest girl in the world!!! Now I just walk without any support. )))))))

I personally was very happy about the hospital. No complaints at all.

The doctor does listens and helps. He is a nice person. Goh I hope he has!!

Congratulations for being able to walk without the walker

Maybe LON is better than fully externals. Anyway this gives me hope, too.

How is your gait and do you have any kind of slight "ballerina foot". Can you walk straight or still a bit bend over?

I'm a 22 year-old girl who did LON surgery 12th of February 2019 with Dr. Giotikas. I would love to share as much as I can but keep it a little clear. That's why I'm writing everything down in a google drive document. I hope it works, if not please let me know!!

Kind regards

How is everything going so far? I am considering either Armenia or Greece this coming year, hope to go to Giotikas for stryde femurs and tsf tibia for 11.5-12cm combined. Have you had any complications so far?

I am happy that you look good.  Well now you are doing physical therapy in your apartment.  Did you find that physical therapy yourself?  Or did you introduce it from Giotikas?  Please tell me the price of physical therapy if it is good.  Are you dissatisfied with Greece or Giotikas outside of physical therapy?
