What are your thoughts on exogen? The sonic sound thing that supposed to improve bone growth.
Is it a hoax?
Is it worth the price/can you get it in Europe with Giotikas?

Yep.

Never used it; don't know anything about it.
Hey,do you think 5cm on tibias with LON method is safe ? I wish to regain as much mobility as i can and not get too much complications in the long run,i'm planning to go for 5cm tibias,then 8cm femurs with stryde when i'll be able to afford it,as i heard that LON method on femurs is bad
I'm months aways from the operation,do you have any advices to ease the recovering process ? I'm planning to do yoga on a daily basis for several months

Yes, that will probably be fine.
Quotei heard that LON method on femurs is bad
Yeah, it's brutal. Two people I've met personally did it; they were both miserable the whole time: lots of pain and very poor mobility.

Good idea. Also, there was a fitness book I followed called Elastic Steel. It was pretty good as well. Not sure if it's still available, but you might consider checking it out.
But whats so bad about lon femurs ? Comparing to stryde for example,it's more painful during the actual lenghtning period for sure,but what about recovery,a patient who did lon of femurs can recover as best as someone you did stryde in the long term ?
What is the maximum amount you recommend on tibias ? I wonder what else i can do to prepare myself for the surgery,i'm doing a lot of biking as well,and i stopped lift weight on legs

One word, used by one of the patients I knew: agony. Also, the scarring is severe. I don't know about long-term outcomes.

I don't have a recommended maximum amount. It depends on the individual.
Hey Medium, what objects do you recommend bringing if any for massaging your legs if you are doing internals?
At Guang Ji hospital they did something called bao jiao (bao means bun and jiao means foot), in which they soaked two towels in hot water, wrapped your feet in them and let them sit for a few minutes, and then massaged the feet with the towels.
During leg lengthening, do you think any exercise beats walking around in your room with a cane/walker/crutches?
Even after getting a vaccination, it still seems a bit risky going outside + hassle to put on sunscreen etc
I thought about exercise bike but it seems like getting on the bike + falling off would be serious problems
