Wannabegiants tibial lengthening in Moscow, Dr. Bagirov

Edit Post

Hey Wannabegiants. I have five questions:
1) You was operated 1. March. Have you broken any pins in your Ilizarov devices until today?
2)  How many infections at your pin sites have you had until today?
3) When you had an infection at a pin site what did you precisely to treat the infection?
4) Did you eat any raw garlic when you had infections?
5) When you had an infection at a pin site approximately how many days did it take until you got rid of the infection?

Do you know any information about Dr. Bagirov's possible guesthouse setup in Azerbaijan?

1. Never broke any pins, they felt very stable actually, i think a few of the thinner ones bended a little bit but they didnt look like they where even close to breaking. However i only weighted around 65 kilos and lower during most of the LL period.

2. Only had one infection, and it happened right before i was done lengthening, if it hurts bad you are supposed to slow down the lengthening rate during an infection.

3. I put on some ointment around the infected pinsite, which i bought from the clinic, it contained anti-biotics. and i tried to avoid walking as much as i could.

4. No.

5. Cant really remember, probably a week or slightly more, but even after the pain was gone my knee remained stiff for quite a long while after, and that didnt stop until i was done lengthening. Then after that the stiffness went away in like 2 days.

I assume you mean Azerbaijan, but i dont have much information at all about it.. i think the price was slightly lower to do the surgery in Baku in azerbaijan, and the guesthouse is definitely cheaper than the hospital room in Moscow, but by how much im not sure. Dr Bagirov only comes to Baku once ever month though if i recall correctly.

Since your operation how many times have you clean your pin sites and changed the gaze bandages. And how do you clean your pin sites - Do you use 0.2 percent chlorhexidine spray to do it?

Well not really 

I had surgery 2 days ago and removed my right frame, but the doctor claimed that while my left leg might be able to be strong enough for frame removal, there is a slight risk of it bending still because the callus wasnt thick enough on the front in their opinion. So they wanted me to wait approximately another month until i can remove it 

But to my surprise they say i am allowed to put full weight onto my frame free right leg right away, i was under the impression that you would need to be careful for a few weeks and use crutches after frame removal. This makes me believe that the reason i have had to wait so long is because they rather remove the frames here when there is no risk left for the bone bending and such. My right leg was ready for frame removal over a month ago so it makes sense.

This sucks because i already told some of my friends i would be home in oktober, now i probably wont be able to meet them until november, i also already paid tickets for a cruize which me and my friends where supposed to go to in oktober as well and now i lose that money for nothing..

The last week ive spent time using the Tinder and Badoo apps, and ive got quite a lot (like 15 currently) matches with girls who are all in the 6-9 range of hotness (sadly many of them are 18 only  )

This helps my confidence and is a good way to spend the time but its getting problematic keeping some of the girls ive been chatting with interested since i cant ask them on a date yet until im done with LL, so this makes it stressful when it is supposed to be fun.

You're lucky that you haven't had complications with your muscles and nerves and that you are predicted to make a full recovery. You're lucky that your journey has gone so smoothly thus far. Hang in there. This is the final stretch.
