Quote from: Mulholland Dr on September 01, 2021, 03:43:03 PMA rational candidate will never opt for Indian surgeons owing to awful hygienes,medicals,expertises,personnels and indigences.
Apart from cheap prices,I can't find any legit reason to go for India.And that's whyhe is suffering from bad consequences physically and mentally.
Also he described his post-surgery life as hopeful and promising although he is close to paralysis.
So we can analyze the pros and cons.Let's say his surgery is satisfactory in the long run.
If you can head for Paley or Betz,results won't be that embarassing and incommodious.

"A rational candidate will never opt for Indian surgeons owing to awful hygienes,medicals,expertises,personnels and indigences."

the surgical skills I've personally witnessed within the operative theater from an "indian" surgeon would strongly imply that the reverse is true at expertise. perhaps it's not fair to make this global claim about all "indian" surgeons...

Quote from: Medium Drink Of Water on January 28, 2014, 08:41:58 PMI got a private message about this and wanted to share it with the rest of the forum.

Here's the Universal Pain Assessment Tool:
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/25724858/UNIVERSAL-PAIN-ASSESSMENT-TOOL

When walking it's 0.5 to 1.  I notice it but can ignore it and just keep walking, for hours if necessary.  After using the knees a lot I barely notice it at all.  If my knees were metal, I'd say they get rusty easily and that using them lubricates them.

When kneeling it's 1 to 3.  I always notice it, and sometimes I can ignore it.  But other times it interferes with tasks.  The worst situation would be walking on my knees on a hard surface.  I'd definitely feel it and it would interfere with how I walked.  Working out doesn't help this at all.  I guess I'd better behave myself since apologizing on my knees would hurt.  Permanent effects of LL

Sorry for my ignorance but the workout you refer that kind of ''lubricated'' your knees (you still do it?) can be for example a gym/home (or true) bike? I ask this because I may not have much time to workout and a home bike would be perfect. And some surgeons even suggest mainly a bike as physiotherapy.
By the way, do you feel specially afraid of using a normal bike, maybe due to danger of special harm if you would fall?

Dr. Lee said calves get bigger during tibia lengthening, but the same doesn't happen with femurs. I'd personally be fine getting bigger calves, most people who lift weights lack them and can't grow them very well haha

Most aerobic workouts will do it.  I think I was doing Power 90 back when I wrote that.

I rode a bike every day for two years, twice even down a hill at high speed, so I'm definitely not afraid.

I believe it comes from splitting the patellar ligament rather than the type of nail.

Thanks, I'm happy you don't have any feelings to be afraid of biking.
For aerobics do you think it's enough or ok running, stationary bike, eliptical or stationary rowing? You have a preference?

Variety is my preference, and everyone else who knows about fitness.
