If yo do femur lengthening and are on crutches and people see you, how do you explain? Do you say accident? What kind of accident would involve BOTH your femur bones to get broken (and nothing else).
Can anyone vividly describe such an accident? 
And are 6 or 7cm too noticeable? My shoes have given me 4cm extra height, so after LL if I start wearing thin flip flops even then I will appear 3-4 cm taller than pre surgery. Is this something people will observe?
Or is it worth completely restarting your life (job, friends, city etc) just to keep LL private?

Quote from: Iron_Man on August 22, 2019, 08:42:54 AMI think, that people are mostly preoccupied with their lives, it is unlikely that someone will in detail ask you about this
Yes no one will ask in detail but some details they will ask for sure. Probably easy to come up during lunch or coffee time.
I just want to know how other other LL patients dealt with this.
