Hello all,
Some of you know me as I had a journal on here before absolutely bat sh!t crazy trolls took over the sub (seems to be under control now).
I lengthened 3.2CM and now am at a height of 5'8.5 (174CM). I had early consolidation and could not click anymore so I did not hit my original goal of 4-5CM.
Good news is my consolidation is going well and Im already fused. Starting to not even be able to see the bone gap and my alignment and screws look great. Im starting sports now and already do a lot of physical activity. Obviously my walk is perfect and has been for quite some time and my flexibility is mostly back.
So anyway....I want to get an opinion particularly from those who have done LL and are in the 5'9-5'11 region now (but anyone can comment).
Should I re-break and get 2 additional CM and get up to around 5'9.5? Or should I just wrap this up and get the nails out because it wont make that much of a difference.
I feel far less short than before but I already have these nails in me and I didnt hit my goal so its in the back of my mind.
Problem is Im heading up to my mid-30's now and I really dont want to draw out this process....Im getting older. A re-break will push the timeline to getting my nails out by 1 year.
So my question is .... do you see a life quality difference for men who are 5'9.5 over 5'8.5. Think its worth it or time to just move on. Its really a personal question but just thought Id ask as Im on the fence.
Just to be clear id say my height neurosis is cured (I dont feel oddly short anymore like its the first thing people notice about me) but I really do like being taller.
Thanks
