 I think that’s how it should be.. Doing LL in group of 3-4.. ( if you agreed to do with same dr)
It’s not that you only can save some cash from that, but also it would be much easier to see someone going through the same thing  ..  when it comes to how we as human being could feel sad if we see someone is suffering to the end of this crap.. but when it comes to LL you’d feel better to see that you’re not the only one who is suffering.. of course you still have to say I’m so sad for your pain bla bla but deep inside you’re really happy.. you may get what I mean when you do LL.. so yeah better to do it with group

Good luck kilo, but who is mal khan tent???

Quote from: kusop on May 10, 2014, 01:12:58 PMwhats ur height and goal

I'm shooting for 5.5 cm on tibias. That'll get me just over 170 cm.

It's a manipulation of the word malcontent.
 1. mal·con·tent noun \ˌmal-kən-ˈtent\
- a person who is always or often unhappy or angry about something
- one who bears a grudge from a sense of grievance or thwarted ambition

The definition fits my thoughts about me thinking that my height has always prevented me from doing things, both by my own psychological barrier that I put on myself and from others who thought my height made it so I wasn't 'allowed' to do things the taller guys could, so to speak.

I just replaced 'con' with 'Kahn' from my username to make the title more personal.

No offense but I think it's a really bad choice to only do 5.5 cm for lengthening when spending so much money. You should go for 8 cm and be 173 for one surgery. Also do Russia instead of India. Everyone there gets f***ed up.

None taken. I just think getting from 5'5 to 5'7 with one surgery is good enough and that my recovery will go a lot smoother at that amount as opposed to three inches on tibs, and if I decide to lengthen femurs in the future I'll be better off. If I do two surgeries I don't want to go beyond 11.5 cm, and I believe 5.5 cm on tibs followed by 5.5 or 6 cm on femurs would be better from a biomechanical standpoint than 8 cm on tibias followed by 3.5 cm on femurs. It would also mean that I'm paying a lot more per cm for the second surgery if I lengthen a lot on tibs and decide to go for a second surgery for the added 3 to 4 cm. Besides, lengthening both segments closer to the same amount would probably look a lot better aesthetically.

I am about the same height as Kilokahn and I had a goal of about 8cm on tibs for the same reason as Gichelu.  More bang for the buck.  But now my goal is 5.5 on tibs to ensure I get at least 5cms.  I take the train to work everyday and I compare knee height to everyone I sit by.  The guys who have 8cm longer tibs are usually around 190cm.  I think 5cms is very good gain and will put me close enough to average and will heal much quicker than 8cms.
