i'm in lengthening period in tibia with Precice 2.2 and
i measured my Xray pics at home. Results are my right side is consistently 5~7mm longer than left from 4 sets of xray, and 2mm longer from 1 set of xray.
In hospital, it also usually showed 2~3mm longer, but doc didn't seem to care.
Befre surgery it's just 1mm longer, consistently from 2 sets of Xrays.
Is this possible and should i ask doctor for correction?
Or is there something i'm unware of?

Quote from: GrowGrow123 on June 08, 2023, 09:54:00 PMBoth. The measurements from the X-Ray images showed a discrepancy. And I could see that same approximate discrepancy in my legs when I lined them up sitting. About the width of a pinky at its worse.
I no longer have that discrepancy (either by X-Ray measurements or by eye-balling the lined up legs).
how did you equalize that discrepancy?
also when there was discrepancy did you check the elongated length of the nail, which also indicates if discrepancy exists.
