Quote from: Fiveandsomething on June 16, 2021, 10:09:02 PMYOU WENT TO INDIA.
Also your current physical stature matters a lot. All those things you mentioned are not explicit related to LL. Someone who is out of shape can experience all those things you’re experiencing.
I would NOT RECOMMEND INDIA TO ANYONE . Not even my f**ckin enemy.
Also the method you did matters as well so if you did the Lizarov method then your points are all subjective to you and your experience.
A rational candidate will never opt for Indian surgeons owing to awful hygienes,medicals,expertises,personnels and indigences.
Apart from cheap prices,I can't find any legit reason to go for India.And that's whyhe is suffering from bad consequences physically and mentally.
Also he described his post-surgery life as hopeful and promising although he is close to paralysis.
So we can analyze the pros and cons.Let's say his surgery is satisfactory in the long run.
If you can head for Paley or Betz,results won't be that embarassing and incommodious.

Actually very good surgeon in india, parihar. Besides that I wouldn’t consider anyone else personally, even parihar facility doesn’t look like American standards ive heard.

In COVID-19 pandemic in addition to Parihar's only external methods,India is not a resort not only now but also originally for LL.
I'd rather do surgery in China instead of India or other southern-east countries.
I can't believe there is someone planning on LL under Indians,Viets or Laos' hands.That's beyond irrations.

Apart from China, LL is also popular in Korea. Do you think it's safe to recommend people who wanna do LL to choose Korea for the surgery?
Quote from: ilovescience on September 02, 2021, 08:48:03 AMApart from China, LL is also popular in Korea. Do you think it's safe to recommend people who wanna do LL to choose Korea for the surgery?
True.Korean surgeons are more expertise than Chinese.But Dr.Lee's surgery price is very horrible,as high as European surgery prices.
And there is only one reputable surgeon in Korea,just Dr.Lee.Other surgeons are rarely mentioned in this forum so it's kinda gamble to choose other Korean surgeons and China possesses more reputable surgeons,such as Hetao Xia,Helong Bai,Xiangsheng Zhang,Yilian Han and so on.
But everyone having attempts to complain them for discrete surgeries is bastard cuz limb lengthening surgery will get more rigorously prohibited in China due to policities and there will be less amount of patients available to surgery.
To respond to the starter of this blog, he is 100% correct. LL is very risky but as the second person said, who cares people want to be taller. Being short is one of the worst things you can have going on for you in life for many reasons and I say get the surgery if you can afford, be reasonable and make sure you get a good doc. Prepare for the worst because recovery can be lengthy. Realize that the surgery can go wrong but again reduce those odds by preparing.
I did almost 10cm and if I could go back in time I would have stopped at around 5cm. The main reason for this is mobility. Today I can walk completely normal and even run, but that should be taken with a pinch of salt. When I say that i can run its more similar to when a 50 years old run, not a 25 years old.
The other problem is that my femurs are now waaaay to long compared to my upper body, so when I sit down I look like a freak.
If I become a millionaire one day I will actually shorten my femurs by about 4-5cm.
Why not lengthen your tibias?

This
You should always lengthen both segments if you're concerned about athleticism imo, because that's the only way you'll preserve your pre-op biomechanics.
Quote from: ForcedPuberty on January 12, 2015, 05:05:31 PMtake a look at the poll for itsmylifes diary.
the statistic never seems to change.
40% believe in 5-6cm
20% believe in 6-7cm
20% believe in 7-8cm
20% believe in 8-9cm
this is the very reason why so many people get fked up. the second reason is because we all know soft tissue cant go past 0.66mm per day and NO MUTHERfkER STICKS TO IT.
instead they (ultimately do an average of 0.66mm perday) but destroy their body 1 day at a time by over lengthening on a daily basis, they think they are fine during this process because they mask the symptoms of the damage with massive levels of pain killers. ultimately they are fking their body up.
I can tell you with certainty the body can not lengthen past this level unless you use medication to lie to yourself about how fast you can lengthen. when you do something bad the body produces pain to tell you to fking stop. my doctor will not give me any pain killers and I tell you now going above 0.66 is impossible. because your body screams to stop this madness. the same for going above 5cm in total length.
I have never seen a diary where someone did 5cm or less and had permanent damage. with a good doctor. and lengthened 0.66mm per day every single day.
the problem is that people need to be informed about how serious this surgery is. but NOOOOOO every stupid mutherfker comes here wanting to lengthen 20cm, and then ultimately decides on less but still decide to do too much. the problem is greed. people are greedy they want to complete the surgery as fast as possible and want to lengthen the maximum as possible.
greed needs to end.
6cm tibia is the MAX LIMIT. not a mm more.
external femur 5cm MAX LIMIT. not a mm more.
internal femur...... I cant answer. but every stupid nobody who does answer will answer this question with greed in their mind wanting it to be as high as possible. and that again is the problem. your body has limits.
