Quote from: shortisnotfun on December 28, 2022, 11:46:46 AMI don't have an issue with falling asleep tbh. Around 10PM my eyes get so heavy that it's pretty much impossible for me to stay awake. What I have an issue with is staying asleep. I've noticed I wake up around 3AM every single day with pain. It's not terrible pain, but enough to keep you awake. The physiotherapists said the bones are healing around that time, and that's why you feel pain.

I experience literally the samething. Yesterday I woke up around 3am but didn't force myself to go back to sleep. I went back to sleeping around 6am and woke up around 9am. Somedays I manage to sleep straight 6h though.

Are you going to do the femurs as well? Because femurs are easier to strech maybe you might not feel so much pain.

I hope the femurs are easier to stretch! Cause the physiotherapist here fking kills me and makes me cry when she bends my ankles!

Also,
I've been able to walk unassisted about 100 steps. I'm transitioning off the crutches to walking unassisted. Let's see how it goes.

I have a lot of pain when bending my right knee and my right knee is so stiff as well. Most of my pain comes that portion of my body but my physiotherapist says not to bend knees in order to avoid ballerina foot

Quote from: Kanye Western on December 29, 2022, 01:06:04 PMThat's crazy. You haven't showered for over 3 weeks?

You're very strong, you still going to stop at 5cm?

I thought the same prior to surgery but you can clean yourself with wet wipes perfectly they dont allow any bacteria buildup. It's been almost 1.5 months for me and I don't feel dirty at all. I think showering is unnecessary risk for LON

How is your callus/bone developing?

also, i hope you're not lengthening more than 1 mm/ day.

i say you can even slow down towards the end to make sure there's minimal nerve irritation

I am not lengthening faster than 1mm/day. In fact, I have been told I can slow down whenever I like. I will slow down as tightness is really strong right now.

My pinsites hurt the most at night. Literally feels like knives poking slowly at your skin. I would definitely recommend internal tibia just to get away from pin site pain.

What do you eat ? Can you order healthy food or is it mainly fast food on the apps ? Also do you need a turkish number to order food ?
