Female, 5ft, need some feedback

Ok thank you. I'm still concerned about the monorail for the scars. But it is cheaper than internals.

Solomin from Russia has to be in the good list. American doctors are as expensive as nothing.

No one chooses Dr. guichet?

Very expensive for me, I think precice is the superior nail.

I have to research Solomin. I've read some scary outcomes from patients of Guichet..,

I personally don't recommend Dr Guichet because of his excessive distraction during surgery and very rapid lengthening. I don't believe the soft tissue can truly accommodate such rapid bone distraction. While he has had some very successful patients, he has also had some less than satisfactory results.

Sleeping with frames is indeed maddening, especially if you're not normally a back-sleeper. Myself, I did eventually get used to it, though. When you're tired enough, you can fall asleep standing up, I'm sure. Since I've always been a side-sleeper or front-sleeper, propping up pillows behind myself and between my frames did the trick....felt crazy disorienting waking up, though.

I've got some pics and vids of my rather horrific scars, but I had a revision nailing and bone graft, so double the marks on my L leg. I don't have hairy legs like a lot of guys, so there's not much covering all my battle marks...not to mention the little herniations I got.

I assume you don't have hairy legs either, so externals might be a bad choice if you wear lots of skirts and shorts.

If you're in the US...particularly the West Coast, I know a couple docs doing Precise who might be affordable.

Some people seem to think so. Even if I do this I'll still be on the small side though, just not super small like now.

I am trying to remember which ones were Guichet and not others, cause at this point stories all kind of blend, but I think one patient died or had an amputation, then there were other permanent issues with walking and things I think

if you will do this you will be 5'3. you will be 1cm below average so no small at all
