On the afternoon of January 18, I went to the hospital for a re-examination (my husband went with me), took X-rays, got the CD a few minutes later, and went to wait outside the doctor's office. This time, the re-examination was still by Dr. G, on the doctor's computer. I saw the new X-rays, everything was normal, the doctor said my callus was neither the best nor bad, he said he was not worried, but because of the rapid extension, the muscles could not keep up, the doctor told me to stop the extension 2 Weeks, I'll be at the rehab center with new equipment to fix everything.
So far I have lengthened my tibia by 3.7cm and my femur by 2.7cm.
Last week I went to the rehab center to do PT, it was very painful, and I found out that I have the talent to be a soprano.
Other patients said they could hear me screaming on the first floor, and the neighbors on the first floor who were walking their dogs looked up and around in fright... (rehab center is on the third floor). I guess everyone thought it was a murder scene!
When I came back, I told my husband that my husband said I was a "shock maker"（中文：”震楼器“ ）which is a very incisive description! Want to laugh at me?
Again, doing the femur and tibia at the same time is really painful! ! !
Whether doing femur, tibia, or both femur and tibia... It is best to ask your family to accompany you, you will be much better.
In addition, the most surgical friends can prepare a pair of sports gloves for Lajin.
The ones I prepared are short ones, and the unprotected half of my fingers have become calluses, so it would be better if you prepare a pair of long ones.
When I was about to start walking on the anti-gravity treadmill, the gravity wasn't right, I flew, and while I was waiting for the physiotherapist to fix it for me, I opened my arms (like a bird in flight) and hummed. Singing: "I'm a little bird, I want to fly but I can't fly high...". Hahahaha, and then the two physiotherapists sang a very cheerful English song together.
The doctor asked me if I had lost a lot of weight, and I said I don't know. After returning to the hotel, I sat and weighed with the scale. My weight was almost the same as before the operation, so I just lost the weight of 4 P needles (4 needles). P needle is about one kilogram plus 200 grams).
After my husband came, I am in a much better state. I can eat all kinds of food I like every day. I have 3 platters (various fruits and nuts) every day. In addition, I drink a protein drink and 3 cups of juice every day.
Also had hot pot...
My husband also helps me relax my legs, stretch my legs, and do PT exercises taught by a physical therapist every day.
My husband accompanies me to watch a movie every afternoon and evening. It feels really good and happy to have someone with me during this special period.
I also went to the weekly market, very lively, fruit, vegetables, nuts...everything.
I have become friends with more than 10 stray cats. I like to feed the pigeons every day. This week, I also found that there are more than a dozen parrots here, very beautiful green parrots. Parrots are much smarter than pigeons and can hold a large piece The bread flew to the tree to eat slowly.
These are the supplies my husband brought me when he came.
Tibia & Femur with Dr. Giotikas and Precice in 2021.
Each precice nail is 1.2 kg? 
Or 4 precice nails are 1.2 kg in total?

4 total weight.
hey lucky star, how are you doing now? how much lengthened so far?
I have been very busy recently. It takes about three hours to do PT at the rehabilitation center. When I go back to the hotel, I have to use the machine to do leg exercises for 2 hours, leg pressing and stretching for 2 hours... Basically, I spend about 7 hours a day on PT. Also eat 4 meals, 3 fruit bowls, N many snack nuts...and scar management.
Snacks are still delicious in their own country!
I can receive flowers every week. Every day I wake up and see the flowers on the bedside table, I will be in a good mood.
Having an electric wheelchair is really convenient, you can go anywhere you want.
Going to the supermarket is also especially good for packing things. Shopping basket, hanging a bag, holding a bag in front
This is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner my husband cooked on January 31st.
This is the man's hand.
On January 18, I saw a doctor for a review, and the doctor asked for a 2-week suspension. On February 3, the doctor told the situation at the time, and the doctor let the recovery be extended.
I went for a review on February 8, the tibia callus was slow, and the tibia extended the stop for another 2 weeks, and then the recovery and extension stopped again after a few days. The callus of the femur was good and was extended 3 times a day until review after 2 weeks.
February 14th is Valentine's Day. My husband took me to buy a bag and some silk scarves. I was lucky enough to buy a bag with zero distribution. The salesman told me that I had a bag first, but I bought the silk scarf when I saw that I liked it. of.
I went to buy shoes on February 16, and the saleswoman also gave me a Valentine's Day gift box.
Bought another pair of ugly shoes (like my mom would wear) to make walking more comfortable during PT.
On February 21, the beautiful woman in the rehabilitation center had her birthday. I wrapped the gift by myself, hahahaha, the ribbon that wrapped the gift was made by the store where I bought the cake.
Yesterday, another leg girl said that my legs are the thinnest she has ever seen, which is the legendary manga leg. She said that my legs are long enough. I said that I have to continue. She said they should be too thin. Long... She didn't say that I haven't paid attention to this issue, because I'm very busy every day, and I just want to finish PT well, and get through it day by day... When I got home to the hotel, I looked at my legs in the mirror, and then I put them on Before the surgery, my 11cm high heels (sitting) did look too thin (not good looking), it should be thicker when I can walk normally after the extension, I think it will look better.
February 23 (tomorrow) is the re-examination day, and I have to see a doctor, so I weighed myself this morning, minus the weight of the P needle in my body, and the weight has risen to the same as before the operation, which is a good thing.
At present, my tibia has completed 4 cm, and my femur is close to 4 cm. The double segment is really painful. At present, when I do PT in the rehabilitation center, I still have a few movements that hurt me (all kinds of strange calls, laughter... …) Other leg-making friends also follow me, and so do rehabilitation practitioners!
I have the same daily schedule now, so there is nothing special to share. If you have any questions, you can comment.
You must prepare a pair of long sports gloves. I prepared short ones. The calluses on my hands are worn out. This is the first calluses to be pulled out! 
好的，其实双断4厘米是个不错的结果，但我印象中你应该确实需要多做一些，我能理解，不过还是安全延长为主吧，应该快了
Hi, how are you doing
Quote from: karin123 on April 03, 2022, 05:29:11 PMHi, how are you doing
Thank you for your concern, everything is fine.
I haven’t updated for a long time. During this period, I went to the hospital for re-examination (filming, seeing a doctor, and buying my favorite brand of yogurt at the supermarket at the crossroads of the hospital). Everything is normal, nothing special, and I need it every day. There are so many rehabilitation exercises done, so I haven't been here for a long time to read news.
I have insisted on recording every review, life... in WeChat, maybe there will be time to synchronize it in the future, but it is nothing special.
To sum up, from the surgery to now, my tibia has stopped extending a total of 4 times (over 60 days in total) so far, and my femur should be only once.
The most common reason for the delay was that the doctor felt that my tibial callus was not growing fast enough.
At present, I am stopping the extension. The doctor asked me to resume the extension next week, and the extension will be completed in late May. The doctor told me to continue PT for another month after the extension is completed to help me recover and walk faster.
The most frustrating thing right now is that I have no way to go back home! !
The flights I purchased in mid-March, late March, early April, and the end of April were all cut off!
(Direct flights to Beijing)
Airline replies are not in the schedule until the end of October 2022! !
I saw a direct flight to Guangzhou in August, more than 100,000 RMB per ticket, crazy!
The key is that even if you buy it, there is no guarantee that the flight will not be cancelled! ! !
Fortunately, my husband is here with me. We are considering traveling to some other countries in early July. Do you have any good recommendations? I really don't want to spend more than 200,000 yuan to buy two air tickets back to China.
