Quote from: glenn on November 26, 2015, 04:09:51 PMSleep is great! Eight hours a day now. Leg muscles are still sore, but getting better every day.
I am very glad for you 
Dr. Monegal - Two stage internal Femur - Fitbone - Yagen
Just 2 weeks for my surgery!!!!
My PT has recomended me this device in order to reduce the pain.
Has anybody tried this kind of device?
Has any problem with Fitbone?
Many thanks
Hi yagen, good luck with your surgery!...Monegal is a great choice.....Correct me if im wrong, I believe Guichet and Betz lets their patient use those things after surgery.....Saw one of those on Guichets website a while ago, and i think andrewszizzles had a picture of one of those thinks in his diary.
Ok, I will have one week to talk with Dr Monegal at hospital.
Musicmaker, what kind of things did you carry to the hospital? Sport clothes? Crutches? ....
Cual es el kit básico?
D-5.
This next weekend I will do the surgery. Now I am focus on streching!!! I have a lot of doubts about pain, how I will be able to walk with crutches......
Besides I have learnt that my main goal of 7-8 cm have changed, there is not a goal of time or cm, just a deal with my body. I want to listen my body.
This is my original flexibility, two months ago I could not reach the toes.
Alea iacta est
I can assure you, with two stages, your pain will be minimized. Dr Monegal is a very good surgeon, so you shouldn't worry about pain. Instead, you should focus on being positive all the times. Best of luck
Hey Yagen, good luck! 
I am looking forward to read about your experience, since I am also a potential LL user with Monegal (I also had a consultation with him in November)
Just 2 quick questions: are you planning to work during lengthening/consolidation? are you planning to try some weight-bearing on the operated limb (I mean taking some unaided steps at home/gym, etc)
Again, best of wishes!

Thank you buddy, this is a mental game, I always think in Apotheosis and the quote of Gleen "pain will go away and height stay with you"
@Ozymandias
I will be one week at hostpita, one week at home, and 16 days after surgery I will try to go to the office, my job is seated and I dont have to move, I dont need to go away from my office. I asked to other patients and he told me, the first two weeks are the worst.
No, I am not planing to try some weight-bearing on the operated limb, but I will follow the suggestion of the doctor. I think you have to be very carefully because the most important problem is when you broke the nail if you fall down.
Keep on streching!!!
