There’s tons of charlatans out there who will simply sell you a DREAM: it will be fast, simple, and you’ll get tons of height!
it is not a fast process, it is slow and safe
It is not an easy process, it requires dedication and effort
just because you think you can get more length does not mean it will be functional.
To the OP, your message is spot on
Thank you doctor,
I have a question, I did LON for my tibias and after my frame removal + nail locking surgery, I lost sensation in the sole of my feet and had a lot of nerve pain. The nerve pain wasn't going away so neurologist conducted NCS and asked me to get my tarsal tunnel/tibial nerve released. After that the nerve pain has drastically come down but i still don't have sensation on the sole of my feet. However neurologist says that it will come back in some weeks. Have your patients ever experienced something like this? .
btw, my tibial nerve is intact.
Don't make the Same Mistake as me
Lol so we know i got botched and nerve damage was done during frame removal surgery (LON)
I have changed doctors now and i'm now with one of the best LL doctors. He has promised me that I will walk again, after 2-3 months (without support). The doctor i'm with has never had a single bad review and he's a very ethical doctor. I'm confident I will be okay and everything will be fine. fingers crossed.

don't go there. there have been disasters in turkey and even by that dr.
So after getting botched and even nerve damage, I have non-union in both my legs.
However , I'm with Another Dr now taking in charge of me and he's one of the best LL doctors.

Great advice and good points, thumbs up!
You are absolutely right ! Regardless of the country, whichever doctor, research should be done for a long time. I wish you had told me the name of the doctor. I'm sorry for what you've been through. I hope you get well soon btw growing more than 1mm a day is really insane.
