Hey Bohemia,

The "walking 2 months post-surgery" video is just amazing. It seems that you are having a fantastic recovery. Congrats! 

How does it feel when you lengthen with the transmisor? Does it hurts?

How is the pain and discomfort so far?

QuoteHow does it feel when you lengthen with the transmisor? Does it hurts?
No, you feel only a slight awakening sensation in the thigh for a moment.

QuoteHow is the pain and discomfort so far?
I have never felt any acute pain per se in this entire experience. However, the awkward discomfort arises once you complete stretching and lingers for an hour or so. And it also recurs while lying in bed in the same position for too long, thus, in the morning the leg feels like a zombie for a bit. lol

Dr. Monegal received an email from the general manager of Wittenstein—Roman Stauch—who asked that I remove my video where I demonstrated the doctor feature of Fitbone. He called it "misleading information" and said that it could cause "severe problems".

While I could decline, I have turned the video to private to honor his request, as a token of respect to Dr. Monegal.

Thanks for the update

How is your PT going how often do u hire your physical therapist? How would u rate it? Do you think you actually need a physical therapist or could u handle PT on your own?

Could u actually walk and go grocery shopping if u wanted to?

Thank you in advance for your service

The radiologist at Clinica Diagonal also does the physiotheray for like $1500. You will meet every day for a while then once he believes you seem functional, he decreases to at least three per week. And he expects you to also do two sessions alone each day.

You absolutely cannot do this by yourself. The stretching, consulting, and observation he gives to you is utterly priceless.

No, not walk unaided; but with a walker or crutches, yes.
