December 17th at 11:38PM in Istanbul.

Greetings everyone.
I'm just getting out of surgery with Dr Yuksel Yurttas in Istanbul. I did LON Tibias.

My starting height is 160cm and I wish to get 5-6cm.

I am literally out of the surgery since 15 minutes ago, and would like share my progress and my journey. Hopefully there aren't complications.

Also, the doctor could not put a intermedullary nail in my tibia bone. He said the gap is too narrow for it to go. I will be putting the IM nail in after I finish lengthening. Hopefully that goes well, and there are no deformity issues or non union issues due to no nail.

It's extremely loud outside of this hospital. Feels like I'm next to a circus or something.

Immediately after the surgery it's about a 2.
A couple of hours after the surgery it's like an 8-8.5.
Constant throbbing pain.

I did not, but I didn't step out of the room much either. Maybe he went back to the US?
