For me, the worst outcome would be to end up in a vegetative state/locked-in syndrom with two amputated legs. There would be no chance to end your life with (assisted) suicide etc. You just lying around and feel angry about doing this limb lengthening surgery until the rest of your life.

HIV infection is just a slap in the face. HIV infections are very much treatable with modern medicines, especially in the developed world. With a hiv infection you can live a life like everyone else.

I don't consider death as the worst outcome. I mean when your dead, your're dead! Height neurosis is gone.

Why? I don't know in which country you're living but in developed countries you can reduce the viral load until it's no more detectable and transmittable during sexual intercourse.

There are probably horrible side effects from those medicine

You still have to tell partner abt your condition and most ppl will so no. So relationship very very hard. If shortness affected dating then think of hiv srsly
