How about pains included in the procedure?

Is it true if painkillers clinics offer are adequate and effective enough,most ppl can withstand pains from surgeries until the end?

I dunno if I can overcome pains

During the surgery the anesthesia will assure that there's no pain.  After that, there will be pain no matter what while you lengthen.

Can the nail used in LON brake? I mean after the removal of the fixator?

Probably not since it's made of steel.  But sometimes screws can come loose.  That didn't happen to me but it did to some other people, usually the ones with slow bone growth.  Your bones bond with the titanium screws, but if bone growth is slow that process doesn't happen as quickly, giving more chances for the screws to loosen.

A Solid IM Nail wont break or bend, however the screws into the bone are the weakest points. I would feel comfortable walking on a recently installed solid nail, but I would not attempt vigorous weight bearing activity/sport/running until the bone gap is significantly healed as per the radiologists/surgeon recommendations.

Thx for informations although I think mental tortures the reality is imposing on me are enough for me to fight against pains in the procedure

Is your gait back to normal? Are you able to do heavy weightlifting like squats and deadlifts? Thank you

It's normal but not the same as before.  Lengthening only one segment by a lot will change it but I don't walk funny.  I can do heavy lifting leg exercises.
