My femur lenghtening journey with dr Giotikas.

Edit Post

So, I havent written here for a long time, becouse ive been quite busy. I had my surgery on 27th of June and I will check out from the hospital tomorrow. Ive had 3 accidental clicks on my left leg, I hope that accidental clicks happen mostly only in the beginning.
I had 13mm Guichet nails inserted, and I was worried, b ecouse this would mean rimming 0,4 millimeters of my femurs, b ut I was propably just overly anxious.
For the first day there was basically no pain, but the second night was very hard, becouse Im not used to laying in bed for such extended periods of time.
I hope, that everything will get easyer as time goes on.

I still dont know what diameter nail will be used on me (11mm or 13mm).
The airbnb I rented is otherwise wheelchair friendly, but it has bathtub instead of shower and no toilet with handle bars, so I dont know yet, how will this turn out.
I dont know exactly, how long will I stay in Athens, maybe I can return sooner than 6 weeks

So you are planning to live in Athens for 6 weeks. After PT, then going home?
