Is there a people who give up mid LL because it’s too painful?

Edit Post

Man...if that guy raises his center of gravity 15 cm after a quadrilateral lengthening...Strongman competitions are out of the question.  Even just normal squats and lunges will be out of the question.  Hope he realizes this.  Body mechanics absolutely change. That clinic is good at marketing and of course they'll tell you what you want to hear...but there is a very good reason that every other clinic he visited told him he would not perform as before, because it's the truth.

I would say each to their own regarding height. A person in India probably would call someone in the Netherlands that's 175 crazy for getting the surgery to become average. Maybe this guy hates his height and if he has the means and will to do it more power to him.

He explained that he had reached his potential  and got too big for his height (he was bigger before, lost weight for the surgery). So he didnt have motivation anymore and prob decided to get taller cause he thinks it will help him but idk some people just want to be perfect but dont seem to be in touch with reality. I've seen few more 6' people who want to get this surgery but I dont think they get how serious this is. If it was easy I wouldnt even wait.

Lmfao, I hope he didn’t do externals because they would cripple him. Someone should try to message him to try to post on this site, 100% chance it’s not going well so he will stay quiet to try to get live life taller/crippled to fix his issue

Im actually engineer so most of the time in an office. The problem is that is gonna be hard to go by your own at work, if you have tasks that ask you to move or asked to see other departments, if you have tasks that ask you to drive your company car. In europe a doctor must authorize you to work if you have any pathology. 5 weeks ago, the doctor concluded that I am temporarily unfit for my job (something could happen to me when i am walking with crutches by the company or in the car when i am going to work). So my company are really angry to see me like this, and ask me every 2 weeks when it's gonna end... And even if you are sitted all the time, a lot of time you will be unproductive because of the pain...
It's near 1 year im with crutches and i am very tired of not doing a normal life... Just want it finish fast 

You are still in crutches after 1 year ? How is that possible ? Complications ?

I am not in crunches, just can’t run or jog and can’t walk properly. 1/4 of my bone didn’t grow back and my IT band is torn

Go read my story on halil, I tried to summarize it but he butchered me so much I couldn’t condense it

One guy @ Paley gave up in one  month and only grew less than couple of centimeters. He couldn't handle the pain and flew back home.

No, i decided to do 8 cm and one leg after the other. So with fitbone it takes a little more than 3 months to do all the LL. But after the LL you still need 1 or 2 months to recover. I needed 2 monthes, and even that it was very hard... i would have needed like 3 months to be fully recovered from the first leg...
At the middle of November i finished LL with the second leg. So if nothing happens, i will be OK by the end of January... so yes... 12 months... So long 


In Europe, it is mandatory to see a doctor to evaluate your health. I was very lucky as i was operated by a doctor in another country they never tried to contrast the information my LL doctor give them. I am thankful that the "lied" on the medical repport. So no, it is no discriminatory. Indeed, everybody must see a doctor every year to evaluate you.
