Quote from: yudha on August 03, 2014, 11:48:39 PMare you sure blood thinners is included or it is just pain killers and other thing? as i know blood thinners is expensive that may be reason some dr don't give it to their patients...
I know it was blood thinners, because they told me what all the medicine was used for with the help of a translator. In fact i had 2 kinds of pills for a similar purpose. One of them was specifically blood thinning, which i took one every morning and one before going to bed so 2 every day. The other one was specifically against thrombosis and i only took one of those every day, at lunch time.
Not sure why they give you 2 types of tablets for such similar purposes at this clinic but i didnt question it. i dont used them anymore though, i ran out around the same time i was starting consolidation phase, but i didnt need them from there on out.

Wannabe,
How was the energy in your body it must have been to much to sit still majority of the day in the bed or wheelchair. i notice that on myself if i sit still for more than a day my body starts to ache and i feel minor migrane.
And you went 4+ months like that. I would have needed alot of weed fo dat.

The first month after the surgery i didnt move much, took around 3 walks (5-10 min of walking each session) per day. I didnt have the energy for much else and there was discomfort sitting down, so i ended up laying flat on my back most of the days.
after that i got more and more energy, and i started to feel the muscle atrophy which made me have to move around more to get away from the discomfort momentarily.
The last 3 months i have had as much energy as i had pre surgery, i dont get tired from walking, my legs could get warm and tense some times after walking a lot, but i recovered fast by relaxing for 10-30 seks every now and then. Now my legs feel so good that i am only limited by the mobility (i can walk fast without warm up now) but i am still not as cordinated as before the surgery,and i dont think i can jump or run yet though. But i certainly would have the energy for it.
I end up being restless often without anything to do these days so i walk around for many minutes every now and then just thinking about random stuff.
What was it like going through the airport with the frames on? Were you in a wheelchair being wheeled around? Did they check you, did you skip the queues?
How did you board the plane with the wheelchair, assuming you were in a wheelchair.
I worry about having to go home with the frames still on, was the process of going through customs, boarding the plane and so forth hard? How would you describe it?

I think i mentioned this in my diary several times already :p
anyway it wasnt bad, some service dude would wheel me through the airport and yes i got to skip the queues. I handed over my passport at the same places as a normal person would though, but i didnt have to go through the metal detector, only my hand bagagge went through there.
They left me at the gate and arrived again about 15 minutes before it was time to board the plane, on the trip back i got to board first. On the trip back for checkup and that return flight, i had to wait and board last. It depended on what seat i had.
Ahh sorry about that 
It was actually me who asked it too? I must have forgotten lol, silly me 
So what happens to the wheelchair once you're on your seat? They just put it somewhere on the plane? lol

They help you switch to a smaller version of a wheelchair when you are about to get on the plane, so the normal wheelchair is left at the airport. This small version is able to get through in the middle of the plane between the seats. After that they take it out of the plane as well, doesnt really matter because you get a similar one on the way off the plane when you have landed.
what about your own wheelchair...they take it out from you so you lost it? the smaller wheelchair they give to you can you bring it home or you have to buy the new one? i think you lost money some around 22 dollar hehhee...
