Buldu's agency was obviously unscrupulous, but you were partially responsible for all this misery because you wanted to save money. I just didn't feel any sense of self-responsibility in your writing, just that Buldu's agents were evil, and they are. However, your choices ultimately decide what happens to your body.
I had a loose screw with Betz after the initial surgery. The moment he saw it on the Xray, I was sent in the surgery room to fix it next morning. This probably had something to do with me having paid triple for internals in Germany compared to externals in Turkey.
Paley with externals only had 2% higher infection rate than he did with internals. They disinfect the wound much more frequently and professionally.
I really feel sorry for all of your misgivings, but this is just another reminder for everyone not to trust doctors with agents in developing countries. You probably would've saved 50% if everything went right. But if something went wrong, those savings will be last things you'll regret.
Lol I didn’t take offense to anything you said, even paley wrote me in an email “you get what you pay for” you guys are completely right
Buldu did fix the complication for free. I could have afforded to do it in the USA but it would have been a huge chunk of my savings. Being 23 and working so hard to save that first 100k it’s not something you want to let go of just to have a surgery that will make you 3 inches taller. That was my attitude at that time, now I feel like I should’ve just went and did precice with giotikas or parihar for 45k-50k total.
Also this post wasn’t to really complain, it was more supposed to be an eye opener. LLT makes everything look nice and dandy, they try to seduce you. Like the photo of the patient with the bent pins, his before and after photo shows him starting at 5’8 next to sedat and he is 181cm in the after photo towering after him. Anyone looking at it is probably like “wow that’s great” but they don’t know what I know, that patient is one of my friends I made over there and he had 2 extra surgeries for complications ( bent pins and failing nail) and had the fixators on for 4 months. He went through hell. No one knows what it’s like to have femur fixators on, each day feels like forever. You start to lose your sanity due to all the discomfort. He just started walking unassisted slightly at the 6 month mark and has a long way to go to walk normal.
I made this post so people see the reality of what happens there and what’s behind their post. They post stuff that makes everything look like flowers and butterflies in reality it’s bullcrap
