LON Femur with Dr. Uysal - AFA

Edit Post

Hello dear LL friends,
It's been a while since I don't update my page so it is time to do it as I have plenty of time. June has passed with physio sessions and chilling in the room. Besides two hours of PT in weekdays, I was trying to do more exercises. I am still using walker as it is recommended by Dr. Uysal.  I don’t use painkillers  mostly because I don’t feel any, especially during the day time.
Speed of the lengthening is also go in the same way; 0.25 X 4: 1mm a day. I wish there was a safe way to make it faster but going faster than this not safe and can cause harm.  Safety is more important than the other things from my perspective.  Additionaly, I almost eat the same things every day it becomes like a monodiet for me hahaha.  I only have back pain because of I always lay down on my back and sometimes I needed a massage for my back in the physiotherapy sessions.
I wouldn’t believe that few cm can make so much difference. But it does,  A LOT. Although I am not standing without support , it is clear that my legs are getting longer and longer. Moving out from comfort zone came with a good result.  Only thing is that my Tibia looks shorter as Femur getting taller each day. That’s why  I am thinking to have second surgery after all those process is done because I also want my internal nail to be removed. (I am not sure if is possible to remove Femur nail and have lengthening surgery on Tibia at the same time)
In short, things went going as it was planned. I will update about other details later on. You can send me messages from here or from instagram as well.
Bye for now!!
