Hi all,

I have recived a lot of PM of user about my second surgery. I can not answer all the message.

I had my second surgery without any problem except internet did not so well, it was my unique complaint.
I think that the pain was less than the first surgery, I thint it was because I knew all the things about post surgery.

How my first leg was very good, I asked to the doctor, it it was possible to quit the antenna and the cable, and he did it in the same surgery.

My first walk was a little hard beause I had stiches in both legs, I think the swelling was less than in the first surgery.

Seven days after surgery I came back to my home.

Now I do a normal life again but with crutches again, I can upstais, downstair, drive my car.

I am now in routine mode!!! I dont spend time in the forum, because its the same that the first surgery. I understand now other patient that they give up to write in the forum, because I dont need more info about LL but I can show my case, because I am very thankfull to other patient like Glenn or Bohemia when they wrote their experience.

Now I am lengthening to 0,81 mm per day, worst moment is the night and I start to sleep bad again, but without pain, just tension.

I can bear all my weight in my first leg, its not 100% but its enough heal to bear my weight and do a normal life.

I attached you a video of my first steps three days after surgery, I had stiches in both legs.

Very happy for you, yagen. In a few months, it will be like if LL has never happened (except that you will be taller, of course!)

I really appreciate all the info you share with me, both public and in PMs.

Good luck!

Thank you @ozymandias and other users for the best wishes.

I attached you a video how I walk, I did the video without shoes in order to see the gap, it easier walk with a shoe with internal  shoe lift

Lengthening is the same, without pain, just bad night but better than the begining. I take naps of one or two hours. When I can not sleep I play Clash Rolaye 
Everyday is Groundhog Day

Next video doing exercises climbing stairs, I need to create more muscle but now its time to focus in lengthening and streching.

If he has complications (pretty common among Monegal's patients) he won't forget in a few months. Aimhigh is crippled. Musicmaker has been wheelchairbounded for 2 years and she will never recover. Cooper was crippled and had to be fixed by a top doctor. Other guys are having problems in their daily lives, nerves, bone...

Nice yagen.

How much have you lengthened in this leg so far? The difference between the 2 legs does not look very big (3 or 4 cm...)

Are you using the stationary bike?

Best whises.

I think LLuser1 you are the first user that wants that a patient has a problem in order to justify your crusade against Monegal.

I have done my first surgery 6 months ago and I dont have any problem thus I think I will no have any problem, but If I had a problem I tell it here.

If you are so honest about Doctors why you dont speak about tibia problems of two girls with Paley. There are others Paleys patients in this forum that know about that.

@ozymandyas I have done just 2 cms in the video, look a lower gap but the real gap was 4 cms. Yes, I can do stationary bike

Now I have reached 4 cms and I feel my muscle a bit harder, if it increase i will rest two or three days in order to let my body a best recovery. I did the same in the first leg and my it went very well for my body.

I am in the final stage of lengthning and I am very happy with my new look, I go on doing a normal life with crutches.

This is my final height with shoes

I don't know you. I don't know if you have problems. I know many other Monegal patients. They are doing very bad and they have needed corrective surgeries. Paley's girls have had problems but none of them has problems similar to Musicmaker's, the worst case in LL history. Statistically speaking Paley's bad cases are negligible, but Monegal's aren't.
