diso,

You know if they also apply a male penis catheter after the operation? BTW, how hard/easy is to change clothes -- especially underwear -- with these frames on? Please, tell shorty to start a diary, too. I'm sure the moderator of this forum can start one for him if he wants.

Kilokahn

well I guess I'm the daredevil in this situation ..thanks for the advices but this is shorty who is walking,.. for me I just lay on the bed waiting to be taller ::)



BullSurfer

it is a very tiny rabbit , isn't it  :)
I'm still 5cm and smth... to be honest I notice that after 5cm the pain decreased.. or maybe because I  used to the pain ..


sadboy

thanks sadboy

Leo

if you were a girl I would defiantly recommend Thong  or G-string underwear..  however I remember my male Greek teacher was wearing once "thong" underwear so I think you guys have the same types maybe with different name ...


Machine

No this not the reason behind banning  me in old forum  ,,, cuz I said that I didn't mention doing the 2 parts at the same time ..
I think the reason is because I brought a name of new Dr.. !

Claude

it depends in what do you mean by too much.. I'm planing for 10 or 12cm right now,,

That’s very correct DSB  !!
U got banned bcos u were introducing a new Dr to the forum. While that is on its own not enough to get any one banned, what sealed ur fate is that ur Dr was so much cheaper than what Dr Singari and Apo are charging patients.

Long Story short, u were too much of a risk for his business ventures ….  Ha a ah ah aaha a

Shorty, great pic with the shorts. How's your pain level so far? Is it worse on tibias or femurs? Are you taking injections or pain medication? How about for sleeping, anything? Good luck and please keep us informed. It'll be nice to get some pics of the facilities, so we can see what it looks like over there.

I'm perfect.

Although had a minor hiccup two days ago when one of my pins just snapped randomly so I had to go back to the hospital and get it replaced.

Fingers crossed for close to 5cm this next x-ray. ::)

I'm not sure if I will stop at 5cm or continue to 6. Will have to make a decision after the next x-ray.

My starting height is 174cm. 6 will make me an even 180 but I don't want to get hung up on arbitrary numbers especially when I am at risk of ankle issues on both feet and ballerina on my left foot.

Delhi is hectic, people and things crowding out the streets. Some ppl are overly helpful, some are out to get you (maybe because Im short, I blame many things on my shortness). One day since arriving in Delhi, hotel where im staying denies my reimbursement for prepaid taxi which was promised to me (ripoff). The taxi I hired for taking me places, took me to his commissioned restaurant, and tried to get me to buy garments which don't have needs for (I know all this from watching BBC scam cities). I didn't even tell you the first scam the moment I landed. Here it is, I was at the airport trying to get to a phone in order to call my hotel, I spotted these red phones lining up, so I thought to myself "yay!". I quickly went over and after queries of how such thing work. I was ready, 1 minute 6 rupees, cool. However, to my surprise the next guy came and ask how much per minute and I heard the word "panch" which means 5 in hindi. I then ask him how come, he gave some bs about differences between landline and mobile number. Ok, no problem, 6 rup ain't bad. I then showed him my hotel number, he dialed but not before turning his name tag to the back and b4 I even noticed his name. Cool, I don't need to know his name. Bring... phones is ringing, wrong number after 3 minutes of what where who how. I looked at him hoping hed forget the charge and redial the correct number to help me out. Nope, he didn't, instead "pay up!" I paid then walked away. I then asked a hot Indian girl fiddling with her ipho near luggage belt, only to realize shes has no local sim, Im an idiot. Anyway,  beware of scams if you plan on coming to India or travelling outside your cool corner of the pond bc you can get burn, its not much compare to what we pay back home, but it's just annoying.

If anyone think Im being unfair, hit me up. Even after all the things I mentioned above, I still think Delhi is a good city to come to.

RB

I'll repeat the same advice that u gave me once "listen to your body" :)
update us when you'll get your x-ray
Good luck
 BTW 174 not short, but 180 cm is so damn good

BullSurfer

lool ;D , it is always funny to read the first impression of Delhi from the foreigner's point of view  .. well I was almost in the same situation 3 months ago..

about the ppl yes some of them are extremely helpful .. I remember when I arrived the airport I was almost lost since this is very first time for me to travel alone and I don't know what the steps after I arrive at the airport, however this was an advantage for me too  cuz the airport's employees helped me in everything so it turns out that the steps after you arrive at the airport are completely easy:
.
1-follow the passengers who were at your same flight till you feel that you lost
2- find  a Customs officer to help you.. ;D I didn't have to wait in custom official " I felt that I'm so lucky to see other ppl  standing in very long  line  while  I got one of Customs officer to help me and finish in less that 10min "..
3-ask the same person from where you could purchase Indian sim card
4- buy the sim card and ask the seller from where you could book a cab " obviously he'll ask you about your hotel, and maybe he'll be kind enough to call your hotel and write the address on piece of paper for you..
5- book the cab , they will give you a receipt along with the number of the cab "like for example cab no 9"
6- take the cab give him the receipt and the  piece of paper with an address of the your hotel on it..


Delhi is such big city and you'll see different type of things in the street from the ox , bicycle to car... to be honest I hated delhi in my first two weeks  in India ! I thought there are multiple things have to be change over here ...
and I remember after I had my consultation in forti and nova... I decided to ride one of these green yellow motor thing to see new Delhi before leaving to Mumbai .. and so I did and in the street I saw a guy hitting small boy by the chair.. I decided then that this country is not for me ..! and I can't live here.. when I went back to hotel I had couple of drink then I decided again that I have to be brave and not wasting anytime so I called Jitendar from nova hospital and I told him that I made up my mind and I'll do LL in Monday after 2days..   :)

Diso,

Can you tell us how you handled accommodation after surgery? Do you have to find it on your own? I mean, your surgeon doesn't have a guess house like doctors from other diaries have? What are the pro's and cons of the hotel? How much is it per day and what's included and what's not? How do you handle your laundry and grocery shopping? Does it have Air Conditioning? And the most important thing -- do you have a caretaker/nurse? If so, how expensive it is. Thank you.

Hi leo



Can you tell us how you handled accommodation after surgery? Do you have to find it on your own? I mean, your surgeon doesn't have a guess house like doctors from other diaries have?

No they don't have.. but they search for  a hotel  according to my budget (1000 INR/day) however I wasn't satisfy with the hotels they showed to me except one of them " Sisley Hotel"  but this one cost me around 1400 INR/day.. it was a good hotel though the room is so big, I have a balcony, very close to the hospital.. however I didn't find the staff friendly, the elevator is small so it doesn't fit my wheelchair

so I moved to another hotel  called " Le Benz"  it's new hotel , the cost is 27000/month , the staff is so friendly, the room is good in general however it is not close to hospital I think 5or8km from hospital,,check it here http://www.booking.com/hotel/in/le-benz.en.html

I have caretaker, and she is the one who is doing my laundry.. I pay her 600 INR/day , however you could find cheaper one I guess,,,

Wat diso said is quite right. People can be unfriendly and crappy hotels can be a hassle. Do not trust the pictures you see during booking. Its not just off but way way off. Be prepared.

Diso, youll be in D city for the long haul then? I wish I have a bank to back me up.

Hi,

I don’t understand why external device on femur causes knee ROM problems after 1cm?
Is the fixator going through any muscles, arteries, veins, hamstrings, knee joint and hip joint?

Are you able to bend your knee?

Did your Dr. discourage you from doing external femur lengthening?
Did your Dr. explain the risk for monorail on your femur and what exactly is it?
Would you ask this question to your Dr.
Someone who lengthen 4-5cm on the femurs how long is the consolidation altogether with the lengthening?

8cm (4.5cm in tibia- 3.5 femur)

I’m no longer under the average height 8) !  I’m 160-161cm !! I’m  a normal emirate girl.. ;D ;D
Oh that’s feel so good..  it’s feel like if you became God and starting to design your body according your desire…
I don’t know how to describe my feeling.. but as soon as they told me it’s 8cm, I fall in love with Dr Rah , India, even these monorail fixator.. I felt that it worth all the pain ..
I’m so proud of myself and my body.. I think I did great job ,,
8cm with no complication no ballerina foot no nerves issue, it’s amazing.. I know that I have problem with knee bending.. But let’s hope that will be solved after removing the frame… My dr said he’ll find solution to my knee bending so I don’t have to worry, and I trust him I’m sure he’ll  solve this problem..
I’ll let shorty to take pic of my x-ray then I’ll post it…






Hi drew

I dunno about your question but if you take a look to my x-ray you can tell that the fixator located few mm under the knee joint..
for bending the knee yes I cant bend my knee,,, I reached 45 however when I started the distraction the knee bending starting to be more harder.. right now I'm doing 20 deg..
but I think this is really vary from one person to another, cuz shorty did 90 or 85 deg ..
Did your Dr. discourage you from doing external femur lengthening?
humm he said this will cuz a discomfort
Did your Dr. explain the risk for monorail on your femur and what exactly is it?
on femur no..
Someone who lengthen 4-5cm on the femurs how long is the consolidation altogether with the lengthening?
for 5cm
15days b4 distraction
50 days "distraction phase"
6-8 weeks for consolidation
