-I was picked up from the airport by Mohamad Shariq(physio therapist)and Akbar(caretaker), these guys are some of the nicest people you could ever meet.
-They dropped me at the guest house, filled a form and signed to get my room. Gotta be honest, the room wasn't very clean but I would say it's possible to live in here xD, I mean this is india after all, their standards are different from ours, but I heard dr. Sarin isn't happy with the service of this guest house and in a week or two he will be making a deal with another guest house.
- Dr. sarin came to my room and told me that my surgery will be either on Tuesday or Wednesday.
-You can order room service food here(it's alright I guess), or you can download an app Zomato to order from McDonald's KFC etc...
-Atm the patients staying at the guest are Me, Australian woman, Indian woman and Polish man. There were two other guys who left a couple of days ago, an Indian and a Saudi Arabian.
- So far, I have only met the Australian girl, she was very nice and helpful. She told me her whole experience from her arrival until now(she has lengthened 2.5 cm so far).
I have to say that I really loved how dr sarin arranged this whole arrival for me before I even paid a single penny. He told me don't pay anything, wait after surgery. But to show my appreciation for his generosity, I decided to pay for everything thing today. I don't like how many other doctors won't even respond to you until you pay a booking fee...
If possible go for 7.5 or 8 cm. and plz update regularly with photos(if possible).
Thanks 
Finally 
They arranged a date for my surgery, tomorrow 9am morning. Can't wait to do this 
They told me from 12am I won't be allowed to eat or drink anything, not even a sip of water 
I did the surgery about 12 hours ago.
I only felt when the needle was inserted into my spine multiple times for anesthesia(damn it felt like the devil was biting my ass
), after that, like 5 minutes later I fell asleep and woke up 15 minutes before the end of surgery just to experience some of the pain of nail insertion, I told the anesthetic and she gave epidural again, no pain after that. But uncomfortness is really really bad, I regretted what I have done to myself immediately after the surgery, because I was completely paralyzed in lower body). After 30 minutes of endless suffering they took me back to my room, only then things started getting better drastically, like every hour you feel the improvement. Care taker(Akbar) texted me on what's app telling me I know how you feel right now, but worry not because in 5 days you will feel normal 
Here is a photo of me 12 hours after surgery https://ibb.co/JKNzd0S
Can't do anything right now, just stay in bed, eat, drink and sleep. No need for toilet for number 1(pee), because of the catheter connected to my bladder(was inserted while I was asleep during surgery). Still haven't pooped, I think they give you a bed pan for it
, so I probably will hold it till I can get on a wheelchair and use the toilet myself.
Day 2:
This is the first day after surgery, feeling good, numbness is gone, can move my toes but still can't lift my legs, so I am still in bed!
My main issue right now is mobility and not being able to take a shower(starting to smell bad
)
Oh and I hate the catheter and the cannula!
Day 3:
Feeling much better and happy to have undergone this surgery 
Zero pain
Doctor told me the catheter and cannula will be removed tomorrow(finally
)
Can finally lift my legs with some help using my hands
Very nice and friendly hospital staff
Day 4
-WOW! I am like fully independent already(only need a chair to move around toilet and bed by myself), with zero pain 
-They removed the catheter and the epidural needle(these two are your worst nightmares... so fking annoying, a real pain in the ass! Although useful and essential for the first 3 days to focus on healing fast)
- I am only waiting for tomorrow morning for discharge and back to the guest house 
Time to focus on lengthening now 
Oh wanted to say thanks to all the hospital staff, specially Dr. Gobind and the nurse divya. All the hospital staff are really nice and friendly though:). Thanks Dr. sarin for arranging such a nice and skilled team!
Day 5:
Got discharged from hospital and back to the guest house
. Akbar(caretaker) gave me medicines for 2 weeks. He also told me to call him if I need help to use toilet/ or any other help. But because I am recovering very well, I am already fully independent
. One of the main reasons is because I have strong triceps(big fan of push-ups, been doing pushups for like 2 decades now). I can easily carry my body using only my hands.
Day 6:
Because I have zero pain, zero complications and my recovery is very good, I was able to start lengthening from today
, the majority of patients start lengthening at day 8-10!
I am now officially 1 mm taller 
The physiotherapist mohamad shariq is one of the best and nicest guys you will ever meet, very funny too!
Here is a pic of my legs after lengthening 1 mm

I am feeling very very happy right now, thank you God
