Hiya - so have you confirmed your operation with Kohne in April? Where are you at with your journey?

Hello,
Did you already do the LL with Dr. Köhne? And may I ask how your experience with him was and how much it costs?

Hi, Did you leave your job to get this procedure done? If not, did you get a doctor letter? And did you face any doubts from colleagues about appearing taller and limping a little?

im not gonna answer the first two questions as it can compromise my anonymity.

actually all of them can compromise...

I am ok now, i dont limp anymore. i walk 100% normal.
Although if i have a long long day and walk like 5km+, my legs gets really tired and i start swaying. but this gets better and better. before it was like after 2.5 km.

reaction from people have been mostly about my weightloss. I am ectomorph so i was lean before surgery, after i became close to underweight BMI. But I have recovered from that, mostly.
But people who were my height pre-LL have been looking awkwardly at me. I sometimes slouch when im with these so they leave me alone   

Stryde is a great nail, the best we got right now.
It lets you walk few days after surgery and you can return to work if you have office job pretty much 3-4 weeks later. Your gait my be abit weird but one can minimize it with baggy sweatpants. If one has good LL PT from day 1 i think your gait will be normal by 4 weeks time. I didnt, i went home to lengthen. It was about in middle of my proceess i sought out a true LL PT and from there on I had massive improvement.

I don't want to go to work while still lengthening. Want to focus on physio and eating during lengthening.

My job offers the luxury of working remotely or from home, so I hope to utilise this one month after surgery. So 1 to 1.5 months of leave and 1 to 2 months of working remotely.

I am also scared of people my height  I never wore lifts or anything before but I can start wearing complete flats after LL or even walk barefoot  Still I think people might notice, and otherwise what is the point of doing LL if you look the same??

How much did you lengthen? I want 2 inches.

Would you mind helping me with the first 2 questions over private message?
