Quote from: cyborg4life on March 16, 2020, 03:56:43 PMI agree with the others, rescheduling it would probably be best. Touch base with Dr. M and let him know your concerns he will work with you

if im not mistaken any kind of major surgery diminish / suppresses your immune system.
and covid-19 LOVES supressed immunity, thats why majority of deaths are older people.
and its the most easily and rapidly spreading virus to the date.

pospone it  coronavirus and surgery

Thank you all for the feedback! I contacted the doctor's office yesterday and am waiting to hear back about rescheduling for early 2021.

Quote from: limewalk on March 16, 2020, 08:11:45 AMBetter to just postpone it mate. LL is quite stressful in itself. I wouldn't want to be stressed about other things like whether the aide washed their hands or running out of supplies. I mean in all probability, you will be fine, but it might hurt your lengthening goals if you have to get tested for the virus or be quarantined.

Just curious to know, why did you choose the LA doctor and not the Nevada one? Feel free to PM me if you like to keep it private. Thanks coronavirus and surgery


why so late as 2021 though?

Quote from: limewalk on March 16, 2020, 04:50:07 PMI've been reading your posts, just curious to know, are you Dr. M patient? Or do you know him through a consultation?


Nah I'm not a patient of his just know him from DM's on Instagram for past few years. But now I think his office staff handles his IG mostly now but I've chatted with him. He's in my top 5 docs to get LL surgery done by based on his methods, safety, patient results etc.

What do you think, can economic crisis caused by lockdown decrease global LL prices?

From the Paley Institute (there’s more, but mainly relevant to existing patients only.)

“St. Mary’s Medical Center has mandated new restrictions on the performance of elective surgery. We will continue to perform procedures for patients whose condition may worsen with delay in treatment. We will also perform procedures to alleviate pain, suffering and disability. If patients have already travelled here from afar (more than 120 miles) we will try and accommodate them to avoid unnecessary inconvenience or expense.”

I mean, you will be quarantined the whole time at home. You think you will be ok.
