Try to eat garlic. It starts to fight infections within seconds.
Coconut oil also helps a lot.
Did I miss it? You do have regular physical therapy for at least 2 hours right?
Since you have monorails on you can't stand up and fight ballerina. It'll take you more than a year to be able to walk close to normal if you do 7cm on tibias without any standing.
The device on monorails for lengthening easily malfunctions so you have to pay attention when turning them. It's common to change the lengthening device on them both 2 and 3 times.
The femur bones consolidates very fast so you have to turn them 2mm/day up until 3-4cm but your doctor should decide this together with you.
Be very careful how you sit down regarding your thighs. If you put too much force at one point your femur will snap and heal misaligned. I've seen this before.
Are you going to have 4 intramedullary nails put in after your done lengthening or plates on femurs?
If they put nails inside your femurs your knees will most likely be permanently damaged.
The plate is better but not weight bearing and leaves ugly UGLY scars.
How does your daily food chedule look like? What and how often do you eat?

~Do you eat whole cloves of garlic? Does supplementation help?
Heaps of info on garlic and its antibacterial/antiviral effects on the net.
Allicin supplementation proves superior to eating raw garlic in all cases it seems. Even in studies reffering to garlic they aren't even using the garlic we would talk about:
"However, most of the research on garlic as an antibiotic has involved fresh garlic extracts or powdered garlic products rather than fresh garlic in whole food form. "

Honestly science has come so far there are nearly always better alternatives to natural remedies and such. I really wouldn't fk around especially if you actually end up having malaria.

I am aware that garlic will do little to help combat a parasitic blood infection such as malaria, however I can say eating right does absolutely have a positive effect on the immune system, having not been ill myself in a long time since eating right and exercising.
One thing I have come across time again however is that supplementation is almost always inferior to actually eating whole foods. Hence my question. Also in regards to information on the net, there is 10 times the amount of misinformation as there is information. So I figure if people here are in the know I should ask.
Thanks for your thoughts Russianblue, do you recommend/use any brands of Allicin supplement?
I am aware that garlic will do little to help combat a parasitic blood infection such as malariaI never said that. Actually if you have nothing else garlic will be effective at "atleast effective the outcome of malaria". http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/1653553.stm, however I can say eating right does absolutely have a positive effect on the immune system, having not been ill myself in a long time since eating right and exercising.
One thing I have come across time again however is that supplementation is almost always inferior to actually eating whole foods. I guess I should have phrased that better. I meant it in the sense that legitimate antivirals/antibiotics will outperform herbal remedies such as garlic. I am totally with you that eating a balanced diet is better than say eating a multivitamin. Hence my question. Also in regards to information on the net, there is 10 times the amount of misinformation as there is information.Yea I agree. But, honestly if you stick with reliable sources that reference their work with scientific studies/articles then I think you can be pretty confident in what you read. So I figure if people here are in the know I should ask.
Thanks for your thoughts Russianblue, do you recommend/use any brands of Allicin supplement?No sorry I have no idea. I'm taking nothing and I had no vaccinations. I have seen one mosquito since I got here and I squashed it asap. We have the anti mosquito things plugged in to the walls plus its getting colder and colder so I am not worried. If I was going to take preventative measures against malaria I wouldn't even use Allicin though. I'd go to my GP in Aus and tell him and get the hook up with some premium specialized anti malarial tabs.
Hey Disobedient,
Take it easy with the procedure. Don't push yourself too hard.
5'3" - 5'4" is a very good height for women.
Please put up as many pics as you can 
Not to be rude, but I think Darwin called this "natural selection."
In what bizarro universe could that comment NOT be construed as rude?
Probably in the place where it's just considered mean and cruel.
Hey I said it, and I really meant it. I cannot believe someone, after COUNTLESS OBJECTIVE FORMS OF EVIDENCE, would go for double lengthening!!!!!
First of all, she is using monorails, which are less supportive than ilizarov frames which means you can't walk. (Although it may be more comfortable).
Also she is using EXTERNALS ON HER FEMURS?
?? How many times did Crazy+6 (on the old forum) WARN people AGAINST the use of external frames on the femurs. The man might be crippled for the rest of his life! I think this was an extremely brave decision on part of this woman, but I think she should have done her femurs OR tibias, and then did the other after she recovered or got her intramedullary nail removed. I think that whoever is moderating this forum, warn others from doing this surgery.
To the woman who is doing this surgery, I apologize if my last comment offended you. I am just bewildered that you have decided to do this to yourself. I am not a bad person, and I do not mean to do harm to any one person, however, I think knowledge is the most important "tool" that can be utilized when going into this procedure. I wish you the very best, and please prove me wrong and recover fully. I am absolutely rooting for you, but you really stacked the cards against yourself. Once again, I hope you continue with your diary and update it with pictures.
