Hi Ted, how's it going now? Any updates?

Hi, DDD...
I am a bit better. The atrocious pain decrease, so now i can walk easier with canes and walker. But still using wheelchair...
Its visible the tibial callus formation, because i feel pain in the gap and the frontal tibia got deformed in the callus area.
In 3 days will be 2 months since surgery, so soon i will do another x-ray...
Here is cold outside, so i stay home like a good boy all the time and few friends provide me all i need...
Thank you

Hi, Simba....

25 March 2024 - 15 months from my first surgery and 3 months from my last surgery

What i got so far ?
My femur's callus is ok and in few months i should remove implants.
My tibia's callus is much better after graft.
The right tibia is much better than the left one, is straight, better callus, is stable and much less pain.
The left tibia is not good. Is slightly deformed outward (valgus), having knock knee, so because of that my legs standing position is bad, my sine is foeced and is visible. Also i have big pain in left tibial callus area, so i cannot start physical recovery with a deformed and painful tibia.
Unfortunatelly,  i have to do another surgery for correcting the deformity, because would be st-upid to remain with deformity after so much money spent and 15 months of suffering... isnt it ?

Here you can see the the deformity from above... In this position my ankles should touch, along with knees, but its impossible because left tibia valgus...

Here also, in my dressing mirror, i have the knees touched and the ankles impossible to touch...

Ohh, and i forgot to tell...
- After the graft taken from iliac bone 3 months ago, i still have pain on some flexing body muscles !
- After 3 months i still have urinary problems, because bad procedure in urethra and sphincter
- I dont know what happened, but after removing tracheal intubation, i got a permanent congestio with weird sounds when i breathe.

Just so you know...
