Hi everyone,

I've been considering this procedure for years and the deterrent has been the lengthy recover phase/immobility. To my mind, it would seemingly make more sense to lengthen one leg at a time. Barring an apocalypse and ending up with one leg longer than the other, I'm not seeing the disadvantages other than taking twice as long to reach your height.

The advantages I'm seeing are:
Crutches from day 1? (as opposed to wheelchair)
Much more mobile/functional life
Body only needs to heal/grow one leg

What am I missing? I realize expenditures would increase as you'd have twice as many trips, more hospital expenses...

I just truly hate the thought of being in a wheelchair for months. I feel like I would lose considerable amount of cardiovascular strength...

Any thoughts?
