I hope all is well in your lengthening.
Please finish this diary and ignore the toxic people in this forum. You made a decision to do it and you've done it, all we can do is hope for the best.
I am considering going to the same doctor for my surgery as well and this diary is helping me out with alot of info. Also, don't hesitate to share anything. Thank you
My first post. I am having surgery with Dr. Quynh within the coming months. I went there to check out everything about a year ago. I was already OK with their old hospital. Having changed the hospital to a new one, I like to believe it will not be anything less than the old one. I was privileged enough to get to talk to the many patients they had at that time, as a result I got to see their patients with different progress stages. A majority of them were doing OK, some of them were already walking like every other everyday person you would see in the street, some of them were there for IM nails removal, some of them were still on crutches and of course with some of them were developing different levels of Equinus which should be an inevitable short-term complication of limb lengthening and can be dealt with. The only thing I'm concerned with is the temperature because I'm so used to colder weather. It was so damn hot and humid when I visited and honestly I couldn't see myself doing this whole thing soaked in sweat all day and all night long..but if the result is good, so be it. fk it and I will stand the weather. I learned the institute got revamped not long ago and allegedly they have better facilities now. Can someone verify this ? Sorry for the rambling. Hopefully I will have a pleasant stay there.

Are u thinking about tibia or femur lengthening? Because I heard that they have developed new stable monorail for femur lengthening and first surgery will be on april with that

Doctor's assistant, Thao knew that i am interested in femur lengthening, but there previous monorail device doesn't let you lengthen more than 6 cm because of safety. Just 1_2 weeks ago, I got a message from Thao, he said that we are developing new monorail. And first surgery is scheduled for April
I was speaking with him aswell, but about Tibial. That's nice, because i want to make 2 segments in decent price which Vietnam really is. You can get good outcome living there for lengthening process, bcs you are close to doctors and assistants, even better than with expensive nails but w/o often inspection.

He said they will also use internal nail method in 2019(January). I am still waiting for the outcome of femur lengthening on april with new monorail. I hope it will be successful
