Edit Post

Hello,

I'm 29 years old, male, Japanese, 162cm of height.

I had the LL surgery at Jane hospital in India by Dr. Sringari in middle of April.
I have turned 1.1 cm as of now.

I try to make a diary in concise and on all the fact bases.
Anyone interested in having a surgery with Dr. Sringari, I am glad to answer the questions.

thanks

Hi,

Due to the limited access to the internet where I stay at, I can only use internet midnight , non at day-time.
For day time use, I have paid but still internet is super slow!!
 
I will update when internet become available the day time.. I'm calling to a service center many times..

I had X-ray on July 31st and was shown that right leg is 7.7 mm and left leg is 7.9 mm.
I was expecting something 7.0 mm so it was quite surprise. It seems like every mm I turned I won..
 
I am expecting to remove frames on Aug 5th.
