Two stage femur CLL, Monegal

So it's the night before my surgery and i'm quite tense.
I am in my early 30's. about 169. Scheduled for my first leg tomorrow (unilateral)
Am quite tense about it since my flexibility isnt' the greatest. Dr M will do an ITB release and abductor muscle release. which will hopefully help somewhat.

This forum has helped me a lot so i hope i can return a little. But right now am just too stressed to write anything coherent.

Good luck.

Hey Milko. Don't stress out too much, I recommend staying off the forums until you're post-op. I have a feeling that you're going to get some negative comments in here, you don't need that right now. Good luck!

Good luck my friend and dont worry. The surgery itself wont kill you.

Good luck Miko. Rooting for you!

good Luck my friend👍You are in the best of hands. I hope I will be soon there. Stay Strong!

Quick update - happy to report the surgery is behind me and all is well. No pain yet (but still with an epidural catheter).
Really like the conditions here in the clinica. Big rooms, all clean and modern, very professional staff, decent food and cute nurses.

One unpleasant experience was my fault. I asked the anesthesiologist not to have a catheter placed in my bladder and that was a bad idea - taking a mental trip to all the fountains and waterfalls in the world couldn't help me relax my sphincter. I eventually conceded and asked for a catheter to be inserted. Would have really preferred to have that done while sedated. 

good luck Milko. I will be following this diary.

So far, so good. Let this be an important lesson for those that fear the catheter!

Hi Milko. Because I have considered Dr Monegal for my surgery, I follow your dairy carefully. We all appreciate if you update your dairies regularly.
