Quote from: Disobedient on January 13, 2015, 12:06:22 PMhi there, and Good evening
so as I told you yesterday i had several tests, the ultrasound graph showed that I have pus collection near the knee to be more precise it's located exactly in the pins site .. although after removing frames I waited long time before I had plate fixation just to avoid such a complication.
so the plan was to have surgery this afternoon and make small incision to drain all the pus, but in the morning they noticed that the swollen decrease " the pain still there though", so they decided to have another ultrasound to see if they can drain the pus using injection, and that's what happen, it didn't take time and it was pain free, I felt littel discomfort when they gave me local anesthesia injection, so they drained almost 12ml of clear yellow liquid  ,, and they told me they will test it and they will keep an eye on it.
I'm no longer have shortness of breath nor low blood pressure or fever .. so I think it's minor thing after all .. thanks god it's not pulmonary embolus nor serious infection ..
I want my tears back  VERY FERST STEP - INDIA - Dr. Anil Raheja VERY FERST STEP - INDIA - Dr. Anil Raheja !!!!!!!!!!!! if I knew it would be so minor I wouldn't worry that much!



Hang in there - you're doing great.

Better to forgive than to regret.

everything went well .. they drained all the pus out and cleaned the place, I feel burn sensation though but rather than that I think I'm fine .. I managed to go to washroom by myself .. walking in the room .. I don't feel I had surgery..like the only thing that's make it real is because I had general anesthesia and the ugly orange bandage around my knee
 
I have to ask  for further  details  from the doctor tmw

but I was thinking of this now . anyone who consider LL , why don't you do it for just one leg, you wont lose your mobility so it won't be hard in you also for the second leg the insurance should cover it, since you'll have leg discrepancy more than 5 cm.. hmm think about it  VERY FERST STEP - INDIA - Dr. Anil Raheja?

God I don't believe I really had have surgery  VERY FERST STEP - INDIA - Dr. Anil Raheja

Hi again ..

the result shows that the fluid has no infection and it's totally clear body's fluid which is a good sign ..
so today after I took shower the dressing got wet .. so I removed them ..after I finished and all I sat down on my bed and tried to bend my knee ..
 then TA-DA .. there is a piece of rubber pop out from the new cut ... it wasn't painful .. but it looks GROSS .. I asked from the doctor to come to change the dressing , then he told me that this piece meant to be removed tmw.. and it's allow the fluid to drain out of my leg ... so he removed it , and tight the stitches ..clean the cut .. then he put bandage ..


but the scars are really nasty .. REALLY NASTY !
I managed to take few pic of this mysterious piece of   rubber , before the doctor came..

Before , I had very Very ugly scar

yeah its very ugly, with time it will get better ,you could buy some scar creams to use when it is more healed to help in the scar recovery. silicone creams are the best for that

ikr!!! well in the bright side I think the insurance will cover for fixing these scars since the scars are SO UGLY.. so I'll go for surgery along with laser
but I have to wait some time
