I hope your lengthening goes smoothly. If I may ask, why did Dr Parihar refuse you as a patient?

Actually my parents are not supportive in this journey
And he demand some on to be present on the day of surgery
So this is the reason.

congratulations on finally getting it done after so many years.
are you still in the hospital? what did your doctor say about your symptoms? always coordinate with medical staff, make sure all the symptoms you have are normally expected post-op.
what is the expected timeline for you?

It's probably normal swelling but please ask the doctor about compartment syndrome.

It's normal to not feel good after surgery. How are you doing now, leg swelling go down?

Make sure to keep both feet in the straps as long as possible to keep equinus at bay. The earlier you get it, the harder it will be to correct with stretching.

You don't need to force yourself to walk during the lengthening period if it's painful, but you should stand as much as you can just to put some load on the bone. Once lengthening has stopped you should walk as much as you can though.

REBORN you should ask your doctor if you feel that what youre experiencing is not normal for post-op. have you talked to him about your symptoms since the beginning? what did he say?

The post-op pain is a distant memory for me, as was my condition immediately following surgery. I'm curious how Dr Shah is overseeing you while in his facility. Is he reachable daily? Definitely do not be wary about voicing your concerns to Dr Shah.

Yeah I had all those things. Super normal mate.

Everyone thinks this is way easier than it is.

It is super painful, draining and all those things. But it does work and you will come out the other end okay.

There will be a few problems a long the way. Your doctor will work with you to resolve them.

There are always complications. But you work through them.

It's just slow slog,

you will never do anything harder or more painful in your life (unless you get attacked by a bear and then held hostage by ISIS for 4 months straight after).

Take it day by day,
try to stay positive as best you can,
let the doctor be the doctor
and you concentrate on being a winner.
