Dr. Monegal - Two stage internal Femur - Fitbone - Yagen

Aturro the motivation level is the best, every new thing that you do is a victory. Try to enjoy with the goals.

I took my first shower alon the fourth day, I spent 15 minutes in take a shower, I had to use the crutches to drag the towells and other things, It was hard but it was a goal.

The day afeter the surgery the PT brought the CPM machine to help me to bend my knee, Doctor and PT told me that if you move your leg the recovery will be faster because more blood is working in your leg, thus you reduce the swelling and more growth factors try to repair your damage zone.

I try to walk a lot because is a normal way to srtech your body and to move the blood by your legs.

The CPM machine bend your knee and do the full extension. At my desk I try to do the full extension of my leg lean on above a ball.

If you dont try to bend your knee you are losing mobility and your recovery will be worst. The firts week I could not put my sock but now I can do it bending my knee.

I am no putting more than 20 kilos on my leg. I am not doing full weight bearing I always need 2 crutches, and I wear a insole with 1 cm more than my LL leg in order not to put a lot of kg.

I attach you the timing that other patient "PATIENT XXX" versus my LL timing. He told me that he had more swelling.

I am going to send you my whatsapp in a private post, if you need anything.



I can feel how my leg is improving day by day

The worst part of lengthening is the night!!!!

Keep on pushing Aturro!!! and try to enjoy this journey........you are climbing your own everest!!!

D+21

On Saturday was 3 weeks from surgery, time runs so fast.

The first week working was funny because your time goes fast, but you have less time when you arrive at home. The pain is 1/10 during day and 2/3 at night, the main problem is: I do not sleep well and I need to have a few naps by the day.

I was doing three clicks till Saturday and the routine was, I did 1 click (0,27 every 8 hours)

6:30 get out the bed
7:00 1st click
8:00 Work
12:00 eat something
13:00 2nd click ( I have discover that I can do the clicks through thin pants, thus I can do the clicks anywhere)
14:00 to 15:00 nap
15:00 eat something
18:00 come back home, another nap
21:00 3th click
23:00 I am destroyed!!! take a pain killer
02:00 I am awake
02:00 -6:30 turning in bed.

On Saturday I have started to do 4 clicks (1,08), two click at dawn, and the last two clicks in the afternoon, trying not to do click at night in order to improve my nights. Thus my nights are a quite better but not enough.

I was wondering when I could have sex.........the question was answered on Satuday..... there is not video jajajaja

I do a normal life, on friday I went at theathe, Saturday a birthdays party......The main problem is at night I am tired.

The best streching for me is walk, and the second is walk again!! I think there is a huge diferent between 1 stage and two stages surgery, I dont need to strech a lot of, because I am moving my leg a lot in my "normal life", Maybe I will be wrong when I will reach more cms, but now when I feel a pain in my tibiae, I start to walk and the knot disappears. Other diferent pain is the constant tension on my knee but I am improving my bend angle

I must be now about 2 cms higher, next Thursday I wil get my first bone scan!!

I will try to post the evolution of the scars.

I attached you a video, how I use fitbone through my pants when I am at office or other public site.
Fitbone do a induction field of high frequency outside your leg and the antenna inside your leg drive the power to the engine of fitbone.

If there is no any noise, you can listen the engine turn in, but to check it that it runs well Dr Monegal gave me a stethoscope, thus you can verify that you have been doing the clicks correctly.

I show you the evolution of my scars.

For me its more important is the internal surgery, but I am very glad with my scars, and Doctor did a very good job internal and external.
