Original height 169
 Target height 174

 The day has finally come
 After overcoming all difficulties, finally arranged the surgery schedule.
 My epiphyseal plate will be back on tomorrow
 The first three days were the hardest
 I want to take painkillers first
 If I can't stand it, I will use an injection to relieve the pain.

 Thanks for the information provided by seniors
 This time it’s my turn to give back to you all!

On the second day today, this was a really uncomfortable surgery. My foot was bent at about 70 degrees and I couldn't get out of bed for rehabilitation. Looking at the surgical stent, I was a little worried that it would not heal. No matter what, I had to find a way to get through it!

On the third day, I feel much better than yesterday, and I am gradually getting used to the shelf on my legs. However, I can’t get out of bed yet. The wound will still bleed. It will be painful when changing the dressing, but it is bearable. My head is a little dizzy, as if I have been lying down for too long. I hope it gets better and better

On the fourth day, the pain decreased a lot. I still can't bend my feet too much. It feels tight now. I really want to get out of bed and walk around, but it will take a while. My appetite is not good. I don't know if it is caused by taking too much medicine. Stomach pain, so far, I have shared with you the above

Sorry, please allow me not to disclose the surgery hospital. When I perform surgery in Asian countries, I choose tibia because it is simple and safer. This is the most common height-increasing surgery.

I want to post a photo, but I don’t know why it can’t be posted.

 Thank you, brother upstairs
 Photos and above

 On the fifth day, I took an x-ray today.
 Generally speaking, it is acceptable
 My health has been improving and getting better.
 But going to the toilet is really a headache
 Others are fine
 I hope I can live more independently in a wheelchair in the future
 It will be updated from time to time.  .  .

Day 8
 The swollen and uncomfortable feeling in my feet still exists. My doctor ordered me to lie in bed throughout the extension period. This is really torture. The more I lie down, the more uncomfortable I feel. I really want to end this as soon as possible. Every day is long and difficult. I hope After a while, I will be able to move around in a wheelchair.
 My thigh muscles have begun to get smaller, probably because I have been lying down for too long. This is definitely the biggest challenge in life. You really need to think carefully before proceeding. If time comes back, I should be able to do it one foot at a time. Foot surgery, not both feet at once

I keep the painkillers, but I rarely take them because of the pain, because what makes me miserable is lying in bed for 24 hours. I look forward to getting out of bed and using a wheelchair. Today, my feet feel less swollen. Maybe I can in a few days. The challenge of sitting in a wheelchair

Day 17 +6mm
 Currently lengthening by 1mm per day
 0.25×4
 Soreness, swelling, and tightness begin to appear
 I think most people show up after three centimeters.
 It seems like mine was too early
 I don’t know if I can stick to my goal of 5 centimeters.
 If i can't bear it
 I will try lowering the extension speed
 Hope to achieve the goal
