Penguinn- Precice II internal femurs with Dr. Parihar

Edit Post

what about your bone consolidation?

Edit Post

June end X rays showed improvement, not as much as I want though. There has to have been improvement since, because the stiffness pain that I got in my left leg right after getting out of bed has reduced greatly. As in, it doesn't need a 30 second warm up before walking after sitting for a long time. These are the kind of small improvements I've been noticing.

Seeing my gait video I took of 20 June, the improvement isn't slight. It's there alright. (Not uploading the vid)

This is an impatient time in my journey. In the early months, you fully accept your cripple status. Now I'm so close to normalcy, yet so far because the left bone is taking it's sweet time.

I understand man. Stay strong. I hope you are able to get on with normal life though.

I'm definitely able to get on with normal life. Just.. like a 60 year old lol. It's fine, I was 80 a few weeks ago. I hope to be in my 40s in a month's time.

Before I forget, I had x-rays taken (haven't got them to upload them yet) and my left leg is definitely improved on the side callus already existed. Dr. believes the other side will most likely fill out horizontally once one side is strong. The leg's getting stronger and my gait is very close to normal. I still give it a few weeks though. Life's gotten busy for me and I don't get to do enough physio/straight line walking. As for the right leg, the callus is picture perfect and strong. No question about that leg. All in all, I'm happy.

I also heard that another patient's done Precice 2 cosmetic femoral lengthening with Parihar as of recent. No diary, so I assume the person wants to stay totally anonymous. If you're reading this, stranger, I wish you all the best in your journey.

One annoying little thing I'd like to report is when I walk long distances, especially if in a hurry, my right sole aches. Surprising because right is the good leg. This is probably from not walking for way too many months.

Another thing I've noticed after paying extra careful attention is gait improvements are up and down, think graph wise, but over time the graph goes up. As in one day you could see that suddenly, starting today, your knee's bending fluidly and properly when you walk, and the next day it's stiffer like it was before- but over time the "good days" increase and the "bad days" decrease until the improvement becomes your reality. It's never as if "Oh it improved, there's no going back to that   gait now!" It could be bad the next day again, but over time it improves.

I've said multiple times that I won't post pictures of myself. If an overwhelming majority believed my diary was fake because I only posted like 200 x-rays, I'll have it removed.

I vouch for the Penguinn and I really doubt Dr. Parihar is advertising himself unlike some of the other doctors here (you know who I am talking about haha)

Do you have a diary? I read somewhere that you have problems. We could benefit from knowing what went wrong with you.

I'm too lazy for a diary but my posts should give a  clear idea how risky LL can be.
