Today I went outside of house on my own and walked alone with crutches.
Those who want to see me can video call me on wp. I can answer all question about LON femur. As I've always said, This diaries won't be like other diaries. I share photos, videos and wp video call number. Everything here is real.
Thanks for this awesome post! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the surgery cost?
Hello guys, i am fine. I went to the xray yesterday. I have reached 5.3 cm for both leg. Everything is okey but i had a fever recently. This happened during different 2 times. That's why I stopped lengthening twice untill i heal. Lengthening is very difficult when you have a fever. If you have fever, Every painfull zones of body hurt a lot more about up to 4 times in fever times. Now I feel good and i started to lengthening again for 1 week. My patient days lasted a maximum of 8-9 days totaly. Other than these days, my pain was very low.Pain is usually in night time. It's like growing pains when you were little. But recently i feel pain more times in day. The pain visit me midday times after 5cm but it is not too hard.
My only technical problem is pin bending. My pins have bending, but that didn't bend my bones. My right fixator shows 7.1 cm but my righ leg's real gap is 5.38 cm and My left fixator show 6.8 cm but my right leg's ral gap is 5.42 cm. Especially my right leg's low schanz screws bending. I'm getting too careful now. I don't stand up if it's not necessary. I've walked a lot before(reach until 6cm) But now I even pay attention bending when I'm lying. The femoral muscles are very strong and they can bend even if you do not bear weight. I think the best for my is 3 + 2 schanz screws. I think 2+2 schanz is avaible for -65 kilos people. Really i didnt see bending for -65 kilos people if the fixators is properly fixed.
I take many photos, xray and videos. I have a lot of stories
My X-rays are also beautiful. I will share all of them. I hope i reach 8cm without problems.
See you soon, take care.

Okey man 
Hi friends.
I want to make a statement. I'm giving my phone number to everyone. I'm saying my real name, also my name seen on my wp profile. I have my own picture on my site profile and wp profile. My face is visible on whatsapp. I'm as clear as I can be. Many people write to me on wp. Some of them have no profile photo, no name. Naturally I would like to video chat after meeting chapter. 2 minutes video chat is enough. I want to know who I'm talking to. I want to see his physique and looking. This is my natural right. Of course I have other reasons.
Because I can't trust many of people on internet without confirmafion. It happened several times. Some of them know this surgery as well as a doctor. Maybe he is a doctor, doctor's assistant or staff. These guys ask me strange questions.They have different purposes. I'm not generalizing. What I'm saying is not for every knowledgeable guys about surgery. But if we're talking on the phone, I have to know who are you?
For example i talked with a guy on whatsapp and i offered video chat. He rejected my video chat offer with an excuse but i still talked him. Than It's happening another time. I offered video chat again, they reject me again. I asked why reject. He talks about personal privacy. The excuses was over and the importance of personel privacy started. It was funny.
If you think I'm wrong, don't write me on whatsapp. I am not child and i don't have time for your commercial networks or your privacy agent life. If you've had so much privacy paranoid, your first problem isn't about the short height, it's mental at first. We are not in James Bond movie filming or Pentagon office. We are just one of the seven billion ordinary people in the world.
Cuz i know very well, many of these secret people aren't short and they don't plan on having this surgery. Their purpose is different. Please these guys should not talk to me.
I'm very transparent. Short people are my fate partners. My purpose is to give information to short people. I want to help to all short people in this forum. Otherhand i would like to ask question and recieve information from old veterans if i have trouble about my lengthening process.
In summary, don't get me wrong if I offer you a video call when talk on whatsapp. I wrote all my reasons here. It's also good for you to see me in the video call. Which patient did this to you? 
Take care
Hi m8, you offline on what's up? I reach for now 5.8cm, my goal now is 10cm femur i hope i will get it, also now for me after 10days lengthening pain start like crazy i have feel my legs will broken i stop one day and is better than i continue
Guys, my both femurs reached 9.4 cm on xray films but every x-ray devices not fully calibrated and so i controlled from my fixators meauserement on xray film. cuz i know my fixators span's length in real and i can measure on xray films. I calculated my real gap from using this mathematical proportion. my both gaps are very close to reality. my left gap is 9.08 cm and my right gap is 9.09 cm. I stopped lengthening and i wait for removel device. If i have free time, i do big edit my diary. I will send all xray and photos step by tep, day by day. I have a lot of pictures and xray in my phone.
I don't want to indirectly share with Google drive. I want the pictures to appear directly in the forum. Does anyone know how to do this? Please a friend tell me how to add my photos directly on forum.
I have a lot of story of my mind to tell you
Actually my target was minimum 8 and maximum 8.4 cm but but I turned a few milimeters my fixators to reach my dream height. This was 178 cm and now I measure my height, it's net 178 cm. I stood upright whenever possible with crutches. i changed high elavation to my crutches' spans.
I havent misaligment and nerve pain. So i reach 9.08 cm but my knee Rom really bad. i did not physiotherapy support and i did not do physiotherapy movements. My doctor said a few movements but I have not practiced most of the time. Because i had doubts about my schanz screw's strength. Cuz my old fixators only it barely let me go 6.5 cm. Cuz my old fixators' maximum span was 9cm. .Although my two legs' gaps were equal but my old system also had centimeters losses. So i didnt want to stop on 6.5 cm. My doctor adviced me fixator changed.
I went to Tekirdag city 4 days later. I came to the hospital. I didnt take anesthetized. I just took a painkiller and sleeping drug from my arm. I was put to sleep. it took 45 minutes and I woke up when i was carried to the room on stretcher. My new fixture is again the same brand. It was the same as everything. But it has only difference. Its fixators body span has 2.7 cm more longer than my old fixators. But both of fixators have 9 cm lenghening span but only difference body span length. We used this length to reach more cm. I have moved and walked very little for the last 1.5 months. So i had lost many knee ROM. My knee ROM decreased every day. I have only 30 degree now both legs(maybe right is much more) and my quadriceps muscles are tight. But this hardness not blocked my walking or not give pain me.
I stopped my lengthening a few days ago(probably 6 days ago) Therefore, the pain decreased. But I still need muscle relaxants drugs. Otherhand sometimes I still use 50mg tramadol to sleep comfortably in night.
Summary everything is good for me. My device removal date is probably 18-20 February.
Take care. I wait your comments.
