Thanks for your support friend !!
I suppose you have already talked to the doctor, but if you don't know him yet I advise you to go see him at his office, he is a very attentive and close doctor.
On Friday I have new X-rays, so soon I will publish the photos ... If everything goes well on Friday I will get almost 7 cm of lengthening ...

No, i didnt talked to him yet. I talked to their clinica through whatsapp and they told me to make an appointment with him to answer all my questions. They did told me that the do fitbone, nothing about stryde, but as i see they do stryde aswell.

Waiting for those x-rays, i will be here supporting you!

Hey FSchez, it's been a rollercoaster ride reading your diary and congratulations on reaching 6cms! I know your workplace has a lot of family but did you feel any worry or anxiety about others judging you for going through with the procedure? It seems like it went over well but I have this worry about what my friends and family will think if I decide to have surgery

Hello mate!!
Thank you for your words!
At first I thought that someone indiscreet could ask me some question or uncomfortable or disrespectful comment, but the worst thing one of my cousins ​​told me was that he had done crazy ... Obviously he sees it that way because he is tall and has never suffered it ...
So I told him how I felt on many occasions before the operation, so after explaining how the operation was, he only told me to take care of myself and that I had a lot of courage to have had surgery for something like that ...

To resume, the comments or questions have not been uncomfortable. Even a neighbor who has seen me walk with crutches who has asked me what happened to me, if it is someone with whom I usually coincide, I tell him that it was not an accident, and if he asks me more, I tell him that I have operated on my legs to be taller. Some have been interested and have asked me if it hurts and what the recovery process is like.
Others however have believed that he was joking ...

Obviously for common people, even small ones, this is a crazy thing. Just 2 months ago, maybe less, i didnt know about this kind of surgery. I just readed something but i've never been interested because i thought that was a mad thing for mad people. Still i dont get it and i dont know what to do, thats why i'm here reading your post. I've looked for one in spain and there are 2: alejandro monegal and downey. Alejandro is in Barcelona, that is just at 4 hours from my home. And you have paid 48.800, it is expensive but affordable compared to other doctors.

I will see the doctor to talk to him and i will read very closely your post, you are helping me brother. Keep up updating please

I'm glad to see that my posts are helpful.
I don't remember how I found this forum, but thanks to the publications of other patients they helped me to get an idea of ​​what the operation and the complete recovery process consists of, which is quite long compared to many operations ...
Even so, if you are very concerned about your height and think that with 6-8 cm more you will feel better, it is worth all the time and effort that it implies...

Respect to you FSchez for being brave and honest about this surgery. It's great to own up to it and be more neurotic or insecure about hiding the fact you did a height surgery. Good trait of a man. 👍

Cheers

Thank you very much for your words!!
I know that it is a rather uncomfortable and taboo subject and that is why many of us who feel a complex of stature suffer it in silence ... That is why I understand and respect all those who avoid talking about the operation with friends or family.
In fact, before the operation I was thinking of telling my surgery only to my closest relatives ...
Now I am not announcing to everyone that I have had surgery to be taller, but if someone asks me I feel more comfortable telling the truth ...
Knowing the people around me, sooner or later all my relatives and acquaintances will find out little by little from third parties, so I prefer that they find out first hand.

Day 91 after the operation (Saturday 24 / April / 21):
Hey!
I have already got 7 cms !!
In fact, the X-rays and telemetry from yesterday morning show 6.9 cm on my left leg and 7.2 cm on the right:
I only have 10 days left to finish lengthening my left leg and 5 days for my right leg:

These last few days I have not been able to walk much without the crutches because my back is quite arched and I have a hard time keeping my back straight when I walk ...
Before the operation I had a slight hyperlordosis, and with the tension of my muscles in the last elongated centimeters I have noticed that my back is now much more curved ...
The physiotherapist and the doctor have told me to work more flexibility in the hip flexor muscles and work the lower back to correct my posture.
That means that I still have a lot of work ahead of me to physically recover and reflect the height with respect to the cms that I have lengthened my legs ...
I hope I can walk a little better soon and post a new video

Wow!  Time flies my friend.  I can’t believe you only have 10 more days of lengthening and even less on the other side; you must be so excited to get all the lengthening done. Congrats!!  Keep up the work like you have been doing and I am sure you will get your gait back and see all of your new height.  Very happy for you, bruh!! 😎
