Thank you
Can you explain to me how long does the LON process takes? I've contacted the doctor about it and just waiting for his responses... I was hoping the latest would be 6 'months as I need to return to work.. I'm currently 170cm, was hoping to do 8cm! How long do you think it will take?

I think for L.O.N 6 months is enough. But may i ask what is your job? because if its like desk job it would be a lot easier. It depends on bone formation for the doctor to decided when to take the frame off you legs. He can take the frame out sooner but it won't be safe to walk because sometime you just get tired to walk on cruches so you decided to walk without them and then break the new bone formation. I'm not sure about 8cm bro, he won't let you lengthening that much and i have to say he's strongly agains the idea going beyond 7cm for a fast and full recovery. For 7cm it only takes like 3months to lengthening. The rate is 0.75mm/days.
Dr Thuy is on business trip, he'll be back in 2 days or so, i heard the nurse said that. I hope my respone help.

i will not be rude, but if you stopped now its will be better for your recovery. Tibia is more difficult than femur and take far more time to recover. if its ok to wait many months to recover then go ahead and see how your body will react, good luck.
Arent you one of the people here who want go get at least 8 cm in one go. Im suprised your not encouraging him.

i didn't put 8 cm as a permanent goal, we are here to help each other and give advice to each other. 8 cm for Tibia is a lot, give me anyone here disagree with me? ask Sweden too, he made 7. but now the guy is almost there so lets encourage him if he insist to 8, who knows maybe he's one of the luckiest (unique) to run in less than 7 months with "8" cm Tibia
He wont be later on when he gets all those complications from going too far. If people with paley have suffered complications going for 8 cm then this guy with this unknown doctor in Nam will sure as hell do too.

thats why i prefer 5 Tibia and 7 Femur
So youre saying you wont go beyond 5 cm for tibia then.

5-6 for tibia is realistic but no way 7, just imagine 8!!
