Hey mate,
I'm looking at going with the same doctor, I just wanted to know how much did it cost you to do two segments and how much time did you have away from home and work?
Thanks

Scars not that good looking, though mostly they're all white already and I can't care less about them. Not uploading pics right now.

Thanks Keep in mind that I'm a local patient. I live in St Petersburg. I think prices are a little higher for international patients plus you have to pay for visa, flights, rent, etc. It cost me around 600 000 rubles or as of this date less than 10000$ (20000$ back in the days when ruble wasn't dead - before Ukraine invasion)
So yeah I stayed mostly home. Left the hospital 10 days after the surgery, that helped to cut down the costs as hospital stay isn't cheap for 1 room. My work also doesn't require me to go anywhere, I freelance when I want to, so yeah I wasn't away from my home or my work.
I'm doing good overall. Nothing to report currently, saving money for arm lengthening, as I've spent more than 1 mil rubles already on other cosmetic and not only surgeries - don't ask me which ones.. Most people don't notice I've had LL even if you draw their attention to it (I said jokingly that I've had LL and asked to rate my proportions - seems no one knows Vitruvian Man). Anyways while they may not notice it, I do and I'm not satisfied mainly with my arm length. So I'm probably going to lengthen 2.5-3cm in the humerus next year probably in february or march.
how much cost simple illizarov only install on foot ?
Who would you recommend for LON, Kulesh or Solomin?

Not sure, I think Solomin is the one who does nailing. While Kulesh is overall better with externals.
Had a long film (x-ray) few days ago. Here it is. You can see how my thighs are really skinny still. They were even more so. But I'm making progress. Also my flat feet got a little worse I think, not sure.

Here's analysis and measurements:
The last lines say:
Femur length (right & left): 553mm & 548mm
Tibia length: 440mm & 441mm
Lower limbs length: 993mm & 989mm
Pretty good overall.
Were your tibias 36-37 cm pre-surgery? I ask you this to compare proportions. I guess your knee height was 50 cm pre-surgery.
Why there is a bump at the bottom of your right femur?Is it just a genetic,normal thing?Or?

You mean the thickened bone at the lengthening site? That may happen when you break/lengthen your bones - the newly generated bone may be thicker.

I just found it very interesting.Never heard of it before.Then its not something to worry about i think.
