Not to keep picking on Singh as I'm sure most of you know my story by now. But my left leg was also misaligned from Singh (check my old posts w/xrays)
I met another patient from Singh who did quads, and I saw their xray's as well and they also had misalignment (one leg was so much more different than the other)
And now this x ray AP view also looks to be the same issue.
Kind of weird that one leg is always so different compared to the other leg across multiple patients now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Even if you feel fine, its such an expensive surgery, I still think it's better to get it done right the first time around. Fixing these kinds of issues later is such a pain and waste of time and money.
Stryde Femurs Lengthening @Dr Sarbjit Singh, Singapore
Thanks for your comments bro. So far my lengthened thighs are doing fine . I would probably consider doing my tibia but not too soon. Cheers!
@Robin, pm sent!
Latest update @7months post-surgery. Short video of me walking (https://imgur.com/gallery/WWkVR22?s=wa) . I take public transport daily and the gait is gradually improving. My legs strength is good and I hope to return to light sports in early January.
The latest x-rays (https://imgur.com/gallery/5yqpIof?s=wa) shows on my right femur healed with good callus and left femur almost healed according to doctor.
Thankfully coming to end of my journey.
Congrats! Your gait is pretty good already. 👌🏻
How much does he charge? and what is included? accommodation or no?
You seem to have done well with good recovery, Gainzone
Can i check if there was alot of pain after surgery and lengthening period
Most of the posts i seen in this forum , pain was a issue following surgery
How many therapy sessions did you attend to get this results
Thank you
NotSoBigBadBruin Thanks bro.
GrowTow Will pm you bro for the amount I paid
Robin I don’t have much pain after surgery. I took the pain killers only during my 4 days stay in the hospital. After discharged, the pain was so little that pain killer medication was not needed anymore.
A month after distraction, my right knee felt some tightness and couldn’t straighten fully. Dr Singh has given me some muscle/nerve relaxant and slow down the distraction. It was more to muscle tightness, not pain but eventually was fine. He also gave me a calcium and bone collagen supplements to help the bone heal faster
hi mate, during lengthening did you ever have a problem with wide legs/not being able to put your feet together? as in due to a tight IT band?
No mate, as Dr Singh released the IT bands. Abductor stretching exercises helps a lot.
I saw Dr Singh recently and took some videos to update my progress. Videos below:
I’ve been busy so I didn’t really check the forum.
I am doing fine. Able to go out shopping and dining .Started cycling and brisk walking .The surgery is a challenge but end result justifies .I feel more confident now with new height.
