I had LL in 2007 and I'm still here. Ask me anything!

You're giving me all the answers I dont want to hear lol.  But I appreciate realistic feedback.

If i lengthen 7.5cm Femurs, weight bearing nail, and get a proper ITB (not a soft ITB) release to begin with, how long realistically before i can walk with a gait nobody can detect is off? 90/95% normal gait? It might not be the smoothest, but nobody would say what is with his walk?

Time from surgery

And time after i stop lengthening

I don't know much about internal femurs.

Hey

When you had your surgery, did the surgeon use syndesmosis screw? If so, what was the positioning of it?  Was the end on the fibula lower or higher than the end on the tibia? Or was it horizontal?

Thank you

Don't know, don't remember.

Hey,what type of anesthesea do you use general or local and if youre using local are you given something that makes you sleep?cause im really scared of getting it under local anesthesea since most doctors dont offer general

I got a combination of general and spinal.  I was partially awake.
