Need some help determining how long before I can start working again
« on: July 19, 2017, 08:37:53 AM »
I am planning on doing 6 cm tibial lengthening with Dr. Parihar in January or February. If I had a desk job, it wouldn't be too much of a problem not having too much mobility in my legs after the consolidation phase. However, an EMT (emergency medical technician) has a physically demanding job such as lifting a person among other things. I am going to do more research by reading diaries later on, but I am hoping that I can get a time frame of when I can start working again properly after the surgery.

You won't be able to lift anyone after the procedure until over a year at least.

Honestly skimmed some only. I know I can read the diaries for the answers and will do so later on, but I'm asking here to save some time.

Every question answered will only prompt more questions with LL. It's best to read and research.
