Quote from: Peaceout on October 10, 2016, 02:26:48 PMYour scars look very good imo.I mean you just had your surgery,it should get much better with time.
What do you think about your proportions.Do you know your wingspan?
They're kind of dented in the skin, I'm hoping that fills out.
As for my proportions, my femur:tibia ratio is going to look bad. To start off with I had something like a 13.1" tibia and 16.6" femur. My ending ratio will be something like 13.1:19.5 making my tibia almost 2/3rds of my femur. The gain in height however totally eclipses long femurs which I can easily hide and don't care much about. If it starts looking really bad, I'll settle for something like 7.2cms instead of the whole 7.5.
I was almost 158cms pre-op and I want to get to 165, so anything above 7 is actually fine by me. I hate to be one of those people so caught up in numbers.
My wingspan was 5'4". I have shortish arms and small hands but wide shoulders. I'll go an inch over my wingspan, should be ok.

Which ones and how much is your dosage?The only pills I take is my calcium and vitamin pills post-lunch and the calcium pill again post-dinner. I don't remember the last time I took a pain pill. I sleep for 6+ hours and that too because my lengthening hours are 12am - 8am(and then 4pm) making it impossible to sleep more than 8 hours.
The pain is very tolerable and I would describe it as annoying more than anything else. If I get absorbed in a TV show, movie or video game, I barely care. My ass is more sore from sitting than my legs are from LL. I'm in pain during physiotherapy and while sitting and getting up from the camode but that's self-inflicted, still tolerable and temporary. There's the previously mentioned pill called 'Nice' handy but it's mild, if I start having serious pains I'm going to have to contact them and get heavier pills.
