Not sure what you mean. It's noticeable to others and to me.

What is your small complication now?
Quote from: Penguinn on November 25, 2016, 07:04:07 AMThanks. I'll go for 7+ for sure.
I could've stood straight without bending either knee for a while every day on the walker; basically the same exercise I do now but it would've been much easier without the complication in the first place.
So is standing painful now?

Quote from: Mtall on November 26, 2016, 02:47:27 PMSo is standing painful now?Nope, but if I stand normally my right knee is bent an inch or so ahead of the left. If I have to stand like a normal person, I have to pull back my right knee, meaning stretch the hamstring and that's strenuous.

and what your doctor said about your bent right knee? will this make your process longer? how you could fix it, stretching?

He didn't tell me to stop lengthening, and added these exercises to my routine:
-Glutes contractions while laying on my back
-Laying on my stomach and raising my leg without bending my knee.
-Standing on the walker for 10 minutes while keeping my legs straight.
-Laying down for a couple of hours on my stomach and letting my ankles dangle off the bed.
I completely forgot about the last exercise. 
I've been doing the others and while my knee is still bent in the relaxed position, extending it is a bit easier now. Also it hasn't gotten worse over the last 1+cm of lengthening, if that counts as progress.
Penguin I'm following your walk. I hope you can achieve your goals 
. I wanted to ask you a question. Do you intend to do tibia later?

No. If my arms and torso were big enough I would strongly consider it and if I did it'd be in 4 years or so. After 5'5 I'd start to look weird, and more importantly I'm satisfied and can't be arsed with another LL.
Thank you so much.. I have been following your posts. All the best penguin.
so is the bent temporary or could be permanent?
