i am not ned_flanders. i agree with some of his thoughts and some of the expectations of LL must be set right before doing it. for me LL was worth it.

But I want to make ned_flanders STOP LL. he is currently stretching his healthy legs 1mm a day. I want him to STOP for his own sake. that is all my intention is.

it is much better for him to be bitter about being short than being bitter about having unhealthy achy legs and still being quite short. he will feel more guilt over time. ned_flanders is in a terrible state of mind confused and the best course of action is to STOP LL.

I think it is true that you will lose explosiveness.

But

benefits of height gain >>>>>>>> explosiveness.

You aren't doing professional sports anyway.

WORTH IT!

dont try to change his mind. he is clearly more motivated to get back to full athletic function. it is more important than a few cms. most people are happy to do LL but some people are not. if he regrest it now he will continue to regret it more.
ned_flanders should stop lengthening right now.

ned brother please reply and tell us u r doing ok. v r very convern for you.

it hurts me to see someone continue lengthening due to momentum and not out of interest. lengthening is irreversible. ned please stop! At least consult with ur doctor or some one.

Quote from: ControlYourLife on April 09, 2019, 08:57:04 PMTheres a lot of proof of great recovery for people who did reasonable amounts. May I ask who your doctor was and how much you lengthened? I am very sorry if it went bad, but yes there is objective proof of many making great recoveries. I think 5cm with a top doctor Is reasonable.

Wish you the best.

Hey, can you show me this proof, please? I am particularly interested in people who did "reasonable amounts".


Also @ Fodawupa, I also appreciate your concern for Ned, but you are not his dad, let him do his thing. I lost count how many times you said "please". I doubt he will listen to you. As you can see from Ned's posts, he has done extensive research and I am very sure he will not go anywhere near 6cm.

Don't get me wrong, your concerns are welcomed but this user in particular knows the dangers.

So by reasonable amounts I guess I mean 5cm or less, and also choosing a very top end doctor and getting in peak physical fitness before even doing the surgery.

The first 2 or 3 pages of the patient experiances section has some recent Paley patients that are loving life.

Paley also has some info on his site about doing follow ups with a large number of patients (the mean was 5 years for time after recovery that he interviewed them) and all of them were happy with the outcome.

Even as of 2019 the technology is advancing with stryde and things are getting better.

Dont get me wrong this is some serious   but with hard work and determination you can get taller and get on with your life

5 cm on single segment (femur/tibia) or total?

Thanks for your response.

Hmm, 5 years seems too short of a time, perhaps 10/15 years post LL would be a better time to interview these patients on their satisfaction.

Here's to hoping this information will be easily available soon!

i just want to respectfully clarify a few things:

1 ned_flanders is doing LL himself and satisfying his own desire of vanity but doing fear mongering for other future patients. according to him, this community is a lying delusional community full of crazy people who put vanity before healthy bodies, but he has gathered enough courage to do LL in the first place from reading diaries of patients for so many years.
2 i thought if he really thought LL was a bad idea he should stop it. LL is not for everyone. i was respecting him that he was able to forget LL and go back and live as a good human being. but he wants to lengthen his own legs but put  claims by speculating things to convenience his mood swings.
3. LL is VERY WORTH it if you are ok with some loss in athletic ability. for one, getting used to longer legs in sports is just weird. secondly after LL u get a bit scared of pushing urself to extreme and stressful workouts. u are simply happy to walk normally again. most people just want to get back to normal life after LL and forget about working super hard towards atheltic recovery. thirdly, agility is just something i think you should train with an expert to get back.

i am still not sure if he is going through some mood swings  due to lengthenig but if he is, he should really control himself and write more rationally.

good luck to all. just know when to stop lengthening, it is not a game of numbers...
