I think you'll find that things get better over the next few weeks as you gain more function back in your legs. Good luck with your journey and keep the end goal in mind!

Cheers for the support mate, I just hope this right knee settles.
Hey man,best wishes for your recovery,i'm 25,165cm,and i'm seriously considering this operation,though the cost is really what is stopping me,Buldu is like 16k,and maybe 20k at most if i would stay in Istanbul for recovery,but i read mixed reviews about Turkish doctors,especially the wannabetaller team which crippled some guys apparently,i hope Buldu will make a good job on you,i read two diaries here on the forum about him,and they looked alright,hopefully it will turn out great for you,what is your final goal about your future height ?

I will post my X-Ray when I get the time. Dr. Buldus bone cut was 100% accurate, could not ask for a better procedure. Everything was done great on his half, the rest is up to my motivation and my body. I cannot speak on behalf of other doctors in Istanbul but Dr. Buldu has not cripple a single patient. Sure, there have been some major hard recoveries here and there mostly the fault of the patient but everyone has got back up on the feet at the end.
Looks tempting,16k euros is really a serious advantage over other doctors,all my researches led me to Dr.Giotikas in Greece,he looks professionnal but he's only doing stryde of femurs,but 50k is a whole other budget,what's your height target ?

If you can I would save up for stryde, not just internals. External femurs limits you in many aspects, I can barely scratch my a$$ haha
lol 16k is realistic,50k man,that's just absurd,even if i could save 50k i don't think i'm going to spend it all just for this,i don't mind the pain or even the discomfort,for like 3 months if it can spare 30k in the process,but from what i heard lon of femurs is not very optimal

What about recovery? Some of us only want one surgery and recover as optimally and as fast as possible. We've seen people jogging 4 month post of with Stryde, sprinting 6 months post op.
As you can imagine by reading the op's diary, getting back from being crippled is very huge for your mental health. Imagine still limping around after 1 year post op? But hey! You saved 50k right??

Dr. Buldus patient who did 10cm on his femurs is running, jumping and sprinting after 11 months. 11 months from first surgery and not removal of fixators. This guy came by to see everyone and demonstrated everything in front of us, he is now lengthening his tibias.

If you’re talking about David, he did 9.5cm. I think you’re getting the fixators and nails confused. He did remove the fixators, but not the nails. This is the link to his athletic demonstration after 11 months. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CIvTwFNHirm/?igshid=asogsp5vr5n1
