Congrats brother! How is your progress? Are you still able to fully walk without the use of crutches

Quote from: maxheight35 on December 01, 2022, 05:05:25 PMCool news today -

Went to my hometown to visit my mother and went to the YMCA pool. 

Swam 20 laps. When I first jumped in the water I sank straight down to the bottom but it was easy to come back up and start swimming. This is definitely a full body workout and I highly recommend to anyone who’s had surgery and has access to a pool!

🔥 Watch the stories on IG and check the highlight reel Week 7!
? What's your current length gain?

Thanks man. Progress is strong so far. Still walking no crutches. The walk is getting much better actually, still with a slight limp. Current gain is almost 3cm 🚀

Congrats, being active like you are will go a long way.  Can we get a video of you walking?  Maybe just aim the camera shoulders down? Sorry to ask just super curious. Also do you think its easier to walk like you are with tibia or femurs?  Hoping I can do you can with femurs.

Hi maxheight35, I'm loving your diary and your updates!

What type of anesthesia do they use at Betz institute?
And could you tell which exact hospital they do this surgery in? At the University Hospital Freiburg?

Some of your surgical scars appear to be healing nicely while some others less so. One in particular looked like a newish scab and not much healing. I want to do Tibias like you and one of my biggest concerns is the scaring. Have you noticed anything you've done differently which might lead to the better healing in some sites. Perhaps it's mostly the ankle scars do well starting a bit smaller? Becker or staff give any guidance regarding things to do to minimize scaring?

I do agree that tibia scars are a bit more of a thing compared to femur scars. Not much you can do other than using scar gel daily which they gave you and perhaps laser treatment in the future.

Thank you man.

I just posted a new story of me walking in the locker room, also it’s under Week 8 highlights.

Haven’t done femurs yet, but when I do I will let you know which one is easier!
