I've thought about it, but then I think about keeping these frames on me for another month and immediately it's a no.  ;D :D
if you think you stop at 5cm, after the removal can be you have only 4cm or 4.5cm  ;) you can ask your LL Friends who have the fixator removed

Isnt it just another 14 days for 1cm at 0.75mm per day. It might be worth it you could consider because sometimes 5cm might not have as much of a difference. Just some food for thought. :)

Fair enough. I'll see where I am at 5cm and if I'd like to continue.

I could not find anything mentioned about this from you.
If you had no internal nails, you would have to wait for a long time for the the removal because of safety

I speak about it in the first post. My internal bone cavity is too small for a nail. The doctor has manufactured an special mail for me which will be inserted in during the exfix removal surgery.

I'm at 4.6cm. The pain has definitely increased. I feel that it's harder to pick myself up because my leg muscles are so weak. Also, my body mechanics have changed, making it harder to balance myself. I feel like I'm walking on stilts.
 
I haven't had any infections or any nerve pain as of yet. I also don't have ballerina foot.
Can't wait to get these fixators off of me.

Keep going with 6 cm it’s will take only 14-15 days more it’s worth it.
4-5 cm not that much different, u already made your choice to do the surgery, keep going with 6 cm

I'm at 5cm now. I'm stopping now and don't want to go to 6. No ballerina foot. No infections, no nerve pain.

I have pain in my ankles and along a tendon on the back of my right knee. I'm also very weak in my muscles and get exhausted even taking 50 steps. Now to get this fixator removed and the nail inserted.

I got the external fixator removed. It was the most painful experience of my entire life and trumps the first surgery. It was 10/10 pain for atleast 11 hours. I was curled up in a fetal position and begging for help and pain medicine from the nurses every hour. The nurses were extremely sweet to me and they were concerned but none of the pain medication they give me helped me at all. Just an uncontrollable stiffness and throbbing pain 10/10 in my shins and ankles that refused to subside. I fell asleep for like 3 hours woke up and feel much better. My pain is 6/10 now
It was like someone taking a screwdriver and jamming it into your shins every second

I think its because they insert the nail as well. Which could make more pain as you are doing LATN

Awesome! Do you have any type of pain? Nerve pain?

I'm not really sure yet, as I haven't tried walking unassisted or assisted. The pain from the fixator removal and the nailing surgery is still really strong for me

I know why you have more pain than the others, you did not have the internal nails before.
From the X-ray, it looks like the left leg is longer.

From the “height” of my older self and my older age, let me try to speculate what is possibly going on here.

-in the last few months we’ve seen an influx of Gnail and Betzbone patients who have practically debunked the older rationale that clicking was an atrocious experience only comparable to torture.

-Together with that we also realised through the same patients that the Greece and Germany options seem to be quite pleasant and that both teams there are quite competent.

-Stride ain’t coming back anytime soon and ita replacement is looking behind schedule as well.

-new prospective patients (from the US too) are starting to move to destinations where they offer weight bearing nails.

-these ain’t anymore 3rd world destinations that people are scared of. And prices and packages are more affordable.

-somebody loosing revenue

-somebody starting to release the hounds to try and run a scaremongering campaign on the people of this forum.

May not be this case, but every time you follow the money, you always get somewhere very interesting.

are you trying to say the USA doctors are making fake bad diaries of the euro and turkey doctors? I dont understand. or you think the betz/gio diaries are fake? both? I assume the first is your conclusion but I see literally no negative betz/gio diaries recently and yes I see negative turkey ones but its always been like that.

I'm 25 days into consolidation. I walk without crutches in a living space and in the hotel pretty comfortably, but I prefer to use one crutch for stability. I walk about 5km everyday pretty much now. My bone consolidation is really good.

I'm done with my journey now. Its been 94 days since surgery, and I'm back to normal walking.

I checked my height and I'm a little over 5'5 or 165cm now.

I haven't tried running yet, but my flexibility is all back now. I'll be doing Precice Femurs next year to get to my expected height of 5'8.5.

I probably won't update as much anymore. Peace.
