These.
Do you guys get disability assistance from the government in the U.S.? If yes, that's a win-win. You can live a normal life plus free money and a badass looking leg.
Edit: Saw them at a clinic here in Canada.
FINALLY FIXING MY LEFT LEG WITH DR. MONEGAL IN BARCELONA- JULY 2,2015
I wouldn't call an amputation a win.

Not when you have an uber bad leg that hinders you from living your life.
tiny gets it
this left leg is stopping me from living my live how I want.. and I'm only 36 years old
it might not be a win if you're living a great life, and sudenly you et in an accident and have an amputation
but my situation is different.... I avoid walking because it's not comfortable
just look at my pics
If you are able to walk with your natural leg then thats better than have a prosthesis.
Its to early to think about that. You had surgery some months ago and you are improving.
By other way. You didnt do a good rehabilitation. So there is no way to think about that.
kirkp,
we have never met... ever.... we have never et in our lives... the information you know about me is limited to my words
we dont even have mutual friends
your idea is that if i can hobble around at all on this leg, then that's better than an advanced prosthesis... which is just not the case
I wanna know the rehab that's going to fix my achilles, or my nerve damage, or my arthritis in my ankle??? is rehab gonna fix the length discrepancy??
you are still in early recovery, and people in recovery do not wanna hear stories like mine... which is understandable
I'm not going to get my lower leg amputated next week.... but I'm realistic
I'll do more rehab.... and even though theres guys here that did absolutely nothing, and don't have my issues... i'll give it more time
but i dont see how more recovery and rehab is fixing my destroyed achilles.... look at the scar... or the arthritis.... or the nerve damage
there's no rehab thats fixing any of those things.... and those arent my only left leg issues
My left leg is noticeably bigger than my right leg too... my theory is that shah hurt my circulation, or damaged the blood vessels there, and it's never recovered... because it looks bloated to this day...
my right leg is much better
THERES NO REHAB THAT'S FIXING ANY OF THE THINGS I HAVE
The right leg, more rehab might fix my leg to 90 or 95%... because its likely only weak muscles for the most part
my lower left leg is a mess... doing heel raises with my left leg is torture.... ive got a wrecked achilles and arthritis in my ankle.... not a good combination...
you can ask monegal if im exaggerating... he's the one that noticed the arthritis in the left ankle on the x ray... caused by my former deformity
I am sorry about your condition crimsontide and I hope you do better whatever your decision. In Mumbai Dr. Shah has some TV advertisement and he says he treated an actress in the country for height increase, but I did not like that the hospital is in a apartment building. I insist I will only do this in the US. Do you think Shah did this to you on purpose? Or was it neglect? Or him not knowing what he is doing? He is trained by Paley and Catagni so I was thinking that he should technically have the skill even though the clinic is very poor.
Hi deepak...
I'll be ok... the thought of amputation does not get me even a lil depressed... all I think of is it letting me walk again with full mobility... just gotta be positive
his "hospital" could not be called a hospital by the standards of America
it's in an alleyway.... and it's what we would call a clinic... except he has an operating room in there..
I can't say shah did it on purpose, but ill give you a glimpse into his mindset
the day of my surgery... i was given anaesthetic... and brought to the or... this was september of 2014...
when i was about to be operaed on... the power went out.... it turns out mumbai had a citywide power outage that day
he was going to do the surgery anyway... with this makeshift light.... until he finally decided it was just too dark to do the surgery in those conditions
so you can see 2 sides to this story
1- he could have just said, fk it, and did it, which he did not do
2-the fact he even was thinking about performing a surgery in dim light, and poor working conditions
Shah is just your typical indian dr.... he will tell you there are no worries, everything will be perfect
do not trust him
He told me before he took my frames off , "no way your left leg will bend"
well... months later, I told him how badly my leg was... his reply "" we expected this, no worries... come here, i will fix it"
he flat out lied... he also wanted to charge me more for the corrective surgery than i paid for first one
no other dr would have taken my frames off.... i think
also.... people mention rehab
I HAD A FULL LEG CAST ON EACH LEG
i had them on for like 8 weeks because of shah... and you cant rehab wth a cast on... it set me back months and months
muscles atrophy in leg casts
musicmaker, how u doing baby.... see you soon
The nerve damage is confirmed? Which nerve was damaged?
