Why do you say I'm not a patient? I proved I was a patient to mods. I had a bad result and I can post my opinion as you post yours. Wish you good luck with your legs
Two Stage Internal Femur / Dr. Monegal /
I agree Dr Monegal and their patients deserve respect. Patients have their right to post their opinions, but they should back up their claims while respecting each other. That’s not the case of some trolls here. Users who publish other patients’ X-rays or talk about them without their permission are committing a serious offence and deserve punishment (ban). Please, respect patients’ privacy. Long live Dr Monegal.

i got new X Ray yesterday. Callus growth, alignment etc are looking fine and optimal.
Before it, Dr. Monegal checked my progress whether everything is alright and He made some assessment , Knee extension, flexion, tightness. He said it can better and showed me some exercises and technique to relax muscle which got incredibly relieved after his doing some massage and short therapy. you know i was doing all things by myself , i asked him politely: Can i hire you as my therapist ? lol.
i want do 7cm at most. i think i need more 2 weeks. i feel tightness cos i gave myself just two-three days break until now.
I had enough time to get my Flight in evening, in the mean time, i visited Mic, met new patients from 3 continents, A guy from Mexico was doing Bilateral Femur, Another Guy from China was doing Femur and Tibia in the one Leg, it s really impressive, i admire his effort and last A Guy from Ghana was there for appointment.
Dr Monegal had to leave as Fitbone company CEO was here for a meeting.
then I, Mexican Guy, Ghana Guy went to La Rambla by train to eat something. then from there, i got bus to go airport. For me, The terrible thing that happened to me was delaying of my flight for 3 hours.
when i came to home, i was so tired. was not painful but Soreness was too much!
Stay Strong!
85.Day
7,4 cm
Hey hey what s up Homiess!
i finished first part of lengthening and got new X Ray on 26 September and Gap is 7,4cm. i have clicked totally 75 days with 1mm and got 74 mm on X ray it means "My Clicks" and X-rays are the same!
i m now approx 1.80m(5.11), maybe after fixed knee extension , get more gains. Dr Monegal doesn't want to me being taller than him,lol
we were the same, he is surely solid 1.80m (5.11) and admire his effort that he tries to improve himself with new developments , He went to Basel for new Fitbone Conference.
After got x ray,( the same day:morning-evening) i fly back to my country.Before i leave there, i have enough time to visit the friends in Mic, We hang out all the day.They were doing well. i had my hair cut , There is cool shops like Restaurants, Hairdress,Supermarket cross the street opposite to Mic (you can reach easily with Wheelchair too)
Good News:
No bend , no screw loose No Accuracy ! Bone growth is good and i can now walk with "One Crutches" it s amazing feeling even if walking with one. Dr said : we can do another surgery on November.
Bad News:
my muscle are so tight and can't bend my knee much, only 90° and i lost muscles although i train it. i think they are pretty normal, i need to work hard to get them back. every 3 weeks visiting Doctor and return the country the same day made me so tired(i m a fking crazy BEAST
i couldn't take X-ray in my country,because of my job and privacy things. i live in small city.
Recommends:
+ Physotherapy is very important! Doing alone is completely different thing. Hire a good physiotherapist
+ Do lots of especially quadriceps, hamstrings, adductors stretch before operation.
+ Improve your mindset, prepare yourself for the worst scenario. ( i have still second operation, i have to prepare myself too)
STAY STRONG!
I hear many good things about Dr Monegal. If I did femurs he would be my choice, no idea why some people talk so badly about him. 
@Bry
because the easiest way would be that. Because you need just a simple keyboard and a little bit manipulation stories and of course different accounts 
you know i had read all of them about Dr. Monegal before i decided to do operation but i made an appointment with him,after that i understood and realized how Most of them are such a funny stories.
i saw many successful case and had enough reason to select him
i know there are no perfect Doctor, Nobody is Perfect, Every Doctor can have a bad case!
Success depends on a lot of factor, i just advise everyone to make an appointment before final decision
no matter which Doctor...
STAY STRONG!

Accomodation: Mic St Jordi Normal Price
1380€ Single Room per month

Cost of Medicaments were approx 100€
Phsyotherapy is between 30-40€ per session( I recommend it at least 2 times)

This is the Last X-Ray. everything is allright. i solved knee extension, it s almost straight. i work hard on knee flexion. i eat a lot, take just calcium, vitamin and some minerals. Training routine based on more knee mobility then stretching and at the end, muscle relaxing with foam roller. it s really interesting. i teach my muscles how to gain pre ope function like teaching a baby new things.After increased loading on operated leg, muscles got some gains( size). Lastly, i wait the second op soon.

Congratulations on the result, we know how painful it is but your determination inspires us.
about your results I'm with a doubt,
You mention at the beginning that you were 1.74 and the final result was 74 mm
1.74 + 0.74 = 1.814 m But you say that it is 1.80m solid Is this difference because your legs are still not 100% recovered? Sorry for the doubt I may not have intended because of the translation.
