Hi Guys!

I started making a diary on the old forum old forum  but to inject a little competition and most importantly to offer ppl a choice between two forums, I will also share my experiences here.

If you don't want to read posts made on old forum  because you are loyal to this forum, that's totally cool. I decided to document my future experiences via youtube videos so that I can remain neutral to either alliance.

Here is my youtube channel:


If you can't find it, just youtube "leechlet femur guichet 2014"

As I offered to people on the old forum, please feel free to skype me any time at leechletll

Hi Leechlet,

Thanks for posting here!  I check out both forums too, but my preference is here.  More freedom here.

I'm excited for you on your journey!  Both Guichet and Betz are very capable LL surgeons.

Hey man I saw that you were spending an entire six figures lengthening your femurs! Why not just get both your femurs and tibias done with accommodations in Korea?

Also, 10 cm on just your femurs is a lot man.

I was kind of thinking the same thing myself. Please don't get me wrong leechlet I think Dr. Guichet is a great choice. In my opinion anything is better than that fraud Dr. Betz and his strong as a bent straw Betzbone that always bends and breaks and then charges people 25k for titanium replacement!

It's just that spending 100k just on femur lengthening is a tremendous amount of money and going for 10cm on just your femurs is incredibly dangerous when you could spend the same amount of money with Dr. Donghoon Lee and lengthen your femurs up to 8cm with the Precice2 and do your tibias with LATN for 6-7cm. That would give you 14-15cm in height, your proportions would be much better and it would be much safer and healthier for you body.

Please continue to post regardless cause I really enjoy watching your videos and reading your posts.

Hey, thanks for the welcome ppl!

As for why I didn't do it with the Korean doctor, the answer is simply that I didn't know too much about him. I completely didn't do any research on him whatsoever. I am currently googling him right now and also reading diaries about him. Is it too late to change? Maybe. Maybe not. I haven't wired any money over yet.

The reason I didn't do Precice2 in the US is because it's expensive as hell and it doesn't even go to 10cm. I know 10cm is a lot, and that's just an aim I have, not even saying I will achieve it. It does seem quite ridiculous now that Dr Guichet drew markings on my leg. Let me tell you, 10 cm looked a lot smaller on a ruler. I was thinking, "ya ya, 10cm. how hard can it be?" as i stared at the small 4 inches on the ruler. but now i am starting to see things differently. a big reason i picked guichet is bc 10cm > 8cm and guichet cost less than US doctors. so i was like, what the heck? let's do it!

i didn't go with dr betz for a lot less of an intelligent reason then he is a fraud. in fact, i simply didn't went with him because he didn't answer my emails. that' it. i know, stupid huh? but that's the truth. i emailed both dr guichet and dr betz, and dr guichet replied in a few days. i was like "okay, sure. what the heck" so i went with it.

i am not sure the 100k cost even includes nail removal. i think that might be extra, but i'll have to double check.

the hospital and surgery for dr guichet is only 40-44k euro, which is 55-60usd ish at a good exchange rate. but the psychotherapy, medicine, apartment, taxi, apartment in milano, and everything else just adds up like a bitch. dr guichet requires pyschiotheorpy and although i respect him for that and agree with him about muscle remodeling, the truth is the bigger reason i didn't go with betz is simply bc i emailed him twice and no response. its funny how little things shaped the course of our lifes. could i simply called dr betz on skype, paid 15 cents for the call, and went with him instead? perhaps

or could i do some research on the korean doctor and then decide to fly to korea tomorrow? again, perhaps. thanks for letting me know. i am gonna do some research now. but most likely i'll stay in Italy with guichet. but i still want to do research just to be sure

It's a little disconcerting to me that you wanted to do 10 cm just because "it looked small on a ruler".  Have you done any research on LL before going into this?  Having the desire to get taller and enough money to do so is only half the race, you should know what you're getting into before moving forward with Guichet.
