For the X-ray you are right ..
unfortunately in my computer I have no hardware to read CDs and I would like to see them again for myself .
However I can tell you that every 15 days I see the doctor and I will inform you about calous formation here below.
Diary July 10 -17 days of operation 12 of lengthening
Pain is always constant 2-3 ,3-4.
What changes compared to the first week?
In the first, micro movements such as turning the leg or putting the foot on the ground feel pain like an electric shock and immediately stop.
Now while much more moves can be made.
I went for the first visit with Giotikas no callus formation.
He says that it is normal for the first two weeks the callus does not form even if it is already visible a little because it forms at the 4th or 5th week and my x-rays are like everyone else's.
Some reflectionsWhy and when to do this?
Personally in the sphere of my career, financial life etc I have reached some margins of success. I bought a house, one in cash and the other with leverage, I earned some money. And therefore the last step for personal development was precisely and I felt this operation.
After I think nothing can stop us.
Here in Greece I met a 20-year-old boy who had an operation and I wondered can a simple student ever take money from his parents not to do a master's degree or a small apartment but to pay for this operation? Could it be that economic independence and financial success are in second place for this person?
The truth is none of this. Quite the contrary, my boy thinks of doing this first and then dealing with other areas of life such as career or work. Choice that maybe we too will have made as students
What did I do today?I went to physiotherapy from 9 to 11 I went home, I was tired because I had not slept well last night and I slept 2 hours.
At 4 I started working at 7 I stopped and at 9 this Greek friend of mine came, we ate, we got ready and I went out since it was Friday well after 17 days of operation.
I went out for the first time at just 17 days on crutches at 11:00 in the evening: we went to different clubs to approach girls the story we were making up or that I was a famous footballer or that I was a formula one driver or I did parachute. Even here in Greece is full of beautiful girls
July 23 1 month after surgery and 25 distractionNerve pain knee and foot heel which made me sleep 5 hours
I went to an international event on Friday with the o people and then I went to the disco also I followed them.
How is it going to the clubs?
Well I came back at 6 in the morning once I entered I left my crutches under a table and in the crowd I walked in my Frankenstein way.
I also danced for 30 minutes with a girl to whom I told that I was a professional player
For the X-rays the first meeting 15 days after the operation there was no callus formation
In the second meeting while the formation was there and already the bony and light callus was attached to the two ends of the bone. It was excellent for a boy over 30 so I can continue with 1mm distraction.
As soon as I can post X-ray I will publish them
AcheThe doctor asked me to tell the truth to make you understand I pain is 1-2 and when I don't move it is non-existent. With tramal and apotel painkillers it is possible to limit,
When while i walkmi feel pain in the points where the nail was inserted or on some part of the muscle near the butt.
Only when i walk.
Howevere when i am resting i not feel the pain o disturb.
To give you an example, I went to the gym after 1 month and a half I trained my lats and biceps.
after a month of non-training they hurt. At night the biceps hurt a lot more in the following days than the legs.
July 30, 37 after surgery and 32 distractionI have been feeling like inflammation for two days and when I lean my left leg to walk the pressure of the weight hurts the neck of the femur and I feel like I am limping.
I talked to the physiotherapist and he says that in a few days he will get better.
The rainbow of annoyances
This night also, since I had slept in the afternoon, I felt a sharp pain always at the height of where the nail was placed in the upper part of the femur.
It seems that when I'm tired and sleepy I don't feel the pain as much. But if I have slept and lie in bed for more than two hours I feel a sharp, bearable pain where the nail was inserted
7 August 45 days40day of distraction[/b][/u]
I reached 4 cm is the hardest psychological period.
We have reached the halfway point and we can't see the time to finish. You are tired of walking like a frankeist, and you are afraid if in the future you no longer walk well or if the recovery is not right as it should.
Fortunately I have prepared for this operation. I know you will walk well after 30 or 20 days after the distraction and we need to suspend judgment altogether and focus on the present and do our best.
Here I made friends with 5 other people who do limb lenghtening from all parts of Europe Germany Italy Spain. It is a good reason to encourage us
10 August 48 after operation 43 distraction
Today I had pain at night exactly where the osteotomy or ring was inserted and I took a tramal before going to sleep and then at 5 o'clock. These doses are those recommended by the doctor even if I wanted to limit myself to one a day. I saw this German guy, in fact, he says he doesn't use it anymore. In any case, I slept fine after these pills.
I got up at 8 am prepared and went to do physiotherapy.
- no pain. However, if you are not tired and simply rest in bed for more than 1 hour, you may feel stinging in the upper thigh.
- as I walk. At 4 cm I feel pulled when I put all the muscles of the legs in an upright position. My walk is improving. It's let's say 50% frankestain and 50% natural we hope to improve this week. Not even 2 months have passed yet.
- psychological aspect. I try not to judge neither the result nor the recovery of functionality. During this time, an anxious person may worry if the walk will not be natural or if the 4 cm is too short.
I have postponed any judgment to 3 months after the operation, now I'm in it
- work. I am in August and it has decreased a lot but apart from the morning I do physiotherapy you could work 3 or 4 hours a day in the afternoon or evening. Although I met a Chinese guy who also works at night for the change of hours already the first two weeks with pain and all. Let's imagine willpower
- diet weight. I weighed myself and weighed 58 kg compared to the initial 66. What is happening to me? It will be the medicines that quit the hunger I try
