Hope operation goes well. You made some very obviously sensible points about why you want to do this operation. It's about time, better get it done now, or never

Hi Spartacus.

Good luck on your journey bro.

I'm very interested in reading about it as I'm seriously considering receiving this surgery from Giotikas too.

Guys good evening
These are already 48 hours after the operation. I describe how they went
Surgery day
You don't understand what is going on, you only feel that they put the anesthesia mask on and then you find yourself in the recovery room and then be transported to your room.
You are on paracetamol and tramal drugs (the former for muscle pain, the latter for nerve pain). But in what sense do you feel little pain ? In truth it is as if you have got very cold in the legs or if you have played a football match and the pain if you don’t move is costante to 3-4 because they are not moving. While if they move, because of the wounds that stiffen all the muscle. So to you, like when a person plays football has an injury and does not want to put his foot on the ground, he would simply stand still and wait for it to pass. But they actually put you to work on the same day

Range of motion
I can only raise one leg at a time while lying down and I can bend them almost to 95 degrees it is necessary that they are folded to 90 in order to climb the stairs but they are very rigid.
They put me to work and I took a few steps with the Walker. In truth if with the left (strange because I have had it weaker ) I can fully support my weight with the right leg there is some ligament or discomfort at the level of the knee and it only allows me to be with the right leg tiptoed . Then I step left leg with the sole of the foot resting and right leg on tiptoe.

Recurring thoughts and focus
recurrent thinking is for me guys to pee in that kind of funnel. Since one cannot get up it is very difficult and unfortunately one has a full stomach of liquid and if one does not pee one cannot relax.
So how can you pee not from top to down but in horizontal way

Second day
At night I felt as if some leg muscles were waking up pain on 4 And the evening before I had a little fever at 37:30 and in the morning while 36. I think it has a big impact on our body.
Today I did the same steps with physiotherapists with the right toe and left with the entire sole of the foot were 4-5.
I think that we cannot going back and given that you cannot walk on you own you need assistant to do everything beacuse the legs are a sort of immobiliZe .
Today however I have a small improvements beacuse if is in the first day I cannot stand up to pee today I decide to stand in my foot and try to do it form the tolto the bottom .
Sorry for this arguments but I think is some thing that one should
Know

Day June 27th is the 4th day
Progress :
I go to the bathroom alone with the Walker and I made my first 20 steps with crutches both in the morning and in the afternoon
The physiotherapist tells me that I will soon be able to jump from the parachute
Right leg when i walk and i put in the floor the  inflammation and pain decreased .

June  29 6 sixth day
I slept very well last night and I don't know why I woke up without those micromovements that hurt. It seems that now I could well put the sole of my foot on the ground and everything.
I did stretch and then
I took 30-40 steps with Walker. I went to toilet alone and washed my clothes myself

Then I took 30 steps with crutches but this time fully supporting my weight and not relying so much on the arms


30 june 7 days operation

I wake up at 6 i did 20 steps with  Crutches
Breakfast and I go back to bed
7 days have passed another 7 and the worst they say will end
Up to now the pain from 1 to 10 has been maximum 4 when I got up for a few micro movements but overall around 3

Day 1-2 July 8 days
They discharged me from the hospital. I had no problems going with a wheelchair to the taxy. Arrived by car with crutches I got up and sat behind. A Giotilas assistant and even hospital nurses helped me with suitcases and everything.
When I got home I hired a person provided by giotikas who is with me 24/7. I asked to go shopping and cook.
This day ended tired and I slept well all 8 hours

Day 2 July 8 days
I had to work but tramal took effect and I didn't wake up before 10 am then I worked until 13. From 13 to 16 I slept at 16:30 until 19:00 I worked with computers.
What is it like to work? Well you can be careful to pass all tramal effect first.
I practiced from 7 to 8 something like 80 steps with crutches going and returning from the corridor and kitchen tired but happy.
They told me that after 8 days they never saw anyone walking on crutches.
At night I go to bed but I wake up at 5 o'clock, light pain and tingling like when one does a gym. I take toradol and sleep
Fortunately for me I can tell you that the pain has never risen above 4 and with tramal and ... it is manageable we hope that it will also be so for the future

Nice one dude! It seems like the pain isn’t that bad for you. Others describe the pain as the worst during the first 3 weeks, so if you can ride this out then things will be good for you.
