Very nice bro 
Next time make someone else record the video. We can see you better that way.
Would you recommend your doctor over Guichet and the other doctors in US?
Is your decision in choosing Dr. Inan justified?
Awesome! Basically, it seems that with internals, after 4 months one can take an office job

Quote from: ChrisIsaak on April 06, 2014, 11:54:55 PMI'd like to add a few things about last night at the club and how I felt there.
It was the first time I was able to truly test my new height. The result? I'm taller than maybe 70% of women in heels, and I'm taller than 50% of men. I'm also shorter than 50% of men. But guess what? 5'8 is the Turkish male average, so the latter statistic wasn't very surprising at all! I only saw one person I already new - an old high school friend. He was one of the taller kids, and I mean noticeably taller. I was surprised to see how close I was to his eye level. I predicted that +5 cm would make me taller than almost all the women and men in the club. There was only one very tall guy, I'd say easily above 190 cm. He noticed that I was walking slowly and step by step, and was very kind to make way for me to walk through the crowded place.
My predictions might be slightly skewed since I'm not standing 100% straight with the crutches. At 172 cm though, I'm still shorter than a considerable number of guys. Do I really care now? Nah. After 3 months in a wheelchair, I definitely shouldn't 
Has LL changed my personality? Yeah maybe I'm a bit more confident and cheerful, but no, I'm still me. In terms of relationships, I'm still a family guy-type and not a swinger. I'm too young to be a family guy in the fast paced city life perhaps, but I can't help it. I feel better when I know one person in depth rather than many one night stands. I like to share everything with a woman, and I don't like to toy with peoples' feelings. It's just not me. I haven't lost my libido at all, like some other friends here reported after LL, but I still prefer to know a person better before getting into bed. I'm still a bit old-fashioned, romantic, devoted and faithful. Lol.
So, that's it for now, folks! Stay tuned!
Dude, this is an awesome post. Your story (here and on MTT) has been one of my favorites, and I see a lot of myself in you.
You and the rest of LL and old forum will help me get through my LL when I do it (I'm currently on Dr. Rozbruch's waiting list, trying to get a date in May or June as opposed to waiting until almost August)!
I feel a lot more confident going in this time, and I'm not as scared of the pain, and my father is coming around. I want to get on with my life, but I need to do LL first. Then advancing my career and everything else will happen
Congrats on a great recovery!
Hey man it would be awesome if you could get some official pricing (LON/LATN/Internal) for the different methods your doctor offers! Are there going to be package prices coming soon?
hi hi Excellent, price packages Arrive soon it would be great if you could get the official price ;of dr Betz to Internal Femur to correct LLD thank you.
one small then one .
Hi just curious, why have some people reported losing their libido/sex drives?
My penis is my second favorite organ :p jk. No but seriously, i don't want to lose my sex drive, is it a psychological reason or does it have something to do with nerve endings and etc? Though i don't understand how they would affect the penis.. But still any informed replies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks, bro!
Sure, I'll pay attention to that. Someone else can record the video next time.
I chose Dr.Inan because I wanted to do LL with a good doctor and a good person. I had two very basic criteria. I wasn't entirely comfortable with everything I saw in the US although Dr.Paley was an excellent surgeon, and while Dr.Guichet was a great person, I didn't want to spend months and months doing physio preparing for the surgery as I deemed it very unnecessary. Dr.Guichet told me that the most I could lengthen at my femurs would be 3,5 cm's at my current condition, yet I did 6-7 cm's of lengthening, proving him wrong.
I particularly did LL here because I'm Turkish. My home is here, my family is here, most of my friends are here. You probably know that LL psychology is very important. I chose a setting which would stabilize my mental state. In other words, my reasons of doing LL here were very individual ones.
