Hello, everyone.
My surgery was on May 5, 2015. Though I wanted to be taller since I was an adult, but decided to do it when I was 29 years old. I had known my doctor from 2014. About 1 year I talked to his patient, and finally I choosed him as a doctor. He lives and works in Russia, but once a month he comes to Azerbaijan to do surgery. I had been taken a computer tomography and I was waiting for my doctor. At last that great day came. I was a little nervous. I had a local anesthesia. My surgery continued 2 hours and 10 minutes. When I opened my eyes, began to cry. I was so happy, that at last I could do it. I stayed at the clinic for 4 days. After 2 days tried to walk, I could only do 4-5 steps, at the result began to cry. I felt terrible pain.
When I came at home, my pain began to decrease. I didnt take any painkillers during a month. But there were swelling on my ankles, which didnt let me some exercises.
My lengthening process took 4.5 months. After abt 4-5 cm I had a ballerin cendrome, that was making me to feel bad and depressing. I didnt want to walk, because my toe and front side of feet was pained. It was the only thing, that I regretted not to do enough streching and at the result it become "ballerin cendrome".
Generally, my sleeping was normal. During 4.5 months I couldnt sleep normal only abt 15 days. Though I was stoic, but some days the pain was unbearable. Even painkillers couldnt stop the pain.
On 9 may 2016, the apparatus was removed from left leg, and the other one was removed on 25 May 2016.
I lengthened my height abt 7 cm (one leg 7.1 cm, other one 7.2 cm). It was enough for me. Because if I did more, it could be disproportion. I am not tall now, but I am psychologically I feel good. My height was 146 cm before surgery, now it is 153 cm. I measured my height at home myself, but I am told it must be more.
Cause of ballerin, I could not walk unaided abt 9-10 months. Firstly I used a walker, then I became to use 4-legged walking sticks. After 7 months I returned to my work. And abt after 10 months began to walk unaided.
In the beginning it was diffucult to run, to go down stairs, but now I can run and do the phisycal acts that I could do before surgery.
Now I have little problem with muscles on the behing side of my legs. I can put my feet on the ground after ballerin cendrome, but I feel a little streching. And sometimes the ankle of my right foot get swelling if I wear high heels.
I am happy, that I did this surgery. And wanted to share it with you. If you have any questions, I will be glad to help you. But I work very hard, and I may not to answer you on time.
Have a nice day!
