I feel one becomes really impatient once he/she is back on his/her legs. Once you stand your immediate desire is to walk and then once you start walking you immediately want to run. Human life is really full of greed and impatience.  ;)

Morning stiffness is getting better day by day. Walking is also becoming easier with each passing day. Time for surgical fruits to ripen up.

All movements and ranges of my knee joint are back to normal. I remember till sometime back I used to have knee shivering upon standing along with a slightly bent knee, but it seems to be getting better day by day. I am happy with my knee movements and these days Harry and me, we are working on my ankles. Had a wonderful meal last night with my caretaker and some other staff members. Am soon planning to go for a movie. Some suggestions...?

You pretty much had the perfect surgery, lengthening, and recovery. Congratulations man! I'm doing full externals right now but really considering getting a nail after this.

Actually, no one's LL is sorrow-free or pain-free. Everyone has their own share of problems. It's just a journey which isn't perfect for anyone.

Generally, when I wake up I have a ballerina of about 1 to 2 cm and stays for almost an hour or two. During the day while I stand or walk this problem doesn't occur. I usually stand about 4 times a day with each session comprising of about 10 mins or so. In terms of walking, I can complete my daily routine rather easily and am on track to increase it.

It took me 2 month and half to get rid of ballerina but so far i didn't restore my full ankle ROM , it takes time . And unfortunately u need more than 90 degrees in ur feet to be normal , standing with a good posture, standing from the setting position, balance , going downstairs. I found that using crutches accelerates the cure for ballerina because i used to use walker but crutches are better .

When did you have your surgery and how's your R.O.M now?
How long did it take you before you started running again?
When did you start gyming again properly?
Do your nails bother you while exercising?

My operation was 26 of june 2018 , lengthened only 4 cms , I started correction in August , after that i had ballerina and knees bending , from august until 2 month and half I can put my heels confidently on the ground . Needless to say that my knees bending went very quick. I'm still have the frames. No nails just pure ilizarov, My ROM of the ankle is almost 93 degrees with straight legs ( knees extended ) so as i mentioned no peoblem in walking but other activities that require extra ROM i suck very bad .

is that fibula attached or something. tht x-ray angle looked like the screw was going into the fibula. il still assume not coz 90% of the times fibula is left untouched in cll ofc other than the initial osteotomy and resection that is.

As I am almost in the end phase of my journey and am feeling lucky about it, therefore now at times I do remember those days when I used to find others as lucky for having already completed their LL journey. I have also come to realize that it's not just a physically challenging pathway rather on the contrary it's more of a psychological one. Believe me, once you reach mid-way through your LL journey you start being happy like you have been never before, why because now your previous life goal is nearing its completion and suddenly you have time to think about your next 'big goal'. It provides you with a sense of relief and achievement at the same time.

So one take away for everyone from my journey till here would be that with LL you don't just transform yourself physically rather you also transform your little Edward soul which has finally finished its craving for height and has started to taste satisfaction for once after an awfully long period of time. Believe me, it's a life-changing experience both physically and mentally.

Day by day walking is becoming smoother and smoother. Daily routine has started to seem easier again. Time is a true luxury and can't tell you how fast it runs. A very happy new year to all.

Hello, my friend, by radiography, it looks like everything is fine, in relation to the proportion you think it's going to be good even if you reach 8cm? what are the measurements of your femurs and tibias?
I understand that some people even stretching the tibia too much are within normal because they have very long femurs naturally,
I already am the example of the opposite my femur and tibia has approximate values ​​(approximately 42cm for tibia and femur) for me it would be great to lengthen the femur hahahaha

I hope you get over it quickly and be very happy it's a very big win to reach us at 7cm congratulations !!
and happy New Year !! You're going to start the year higher, it's very cool !!! :D :D
