Hope everythig goes well.

I wanted to ask you since you are doing both segments; which of the two has a bigger effect on overall proportions? Like, the 5.5cm on the tibia changed your proportions as much as the 3m on the femurs?

I think ultimately I'll be more pleased with the tibia lengthening because my wide feet always made me feel like my Tibias were super small. But most people notice your femurs sitting down or maybe it's just me.  Like you're taking a   and you're like holy   my legs are growing long. I think once my femurs grow a little I'll be visually happy. Not sure about content about my final height but that's another issue.

I couldn't dunk I could just grab onto the rim but I also did gymnastics and wrestling so I had dynamic legs. It wasn't just me that had to shell out the extra 35k. The other two tibia patients at the time had issues as well and paid the same to get fixed.

I have no idea what my sitting height is sorry.  My dad visited today.  He'll be here till thursday morning so first thing I did was take a pic alongside him.  I can't put my legs together without stretching first- i'll be asking the doctor if I can reduce turns tomorrow.  The pic isn't the best but we are barefoot so this will do for now.

My dad is like 5.5 and a half. I'm probably around 5 foot 8.5 now. Maybe less.

Damn dude you sure you got these measurements right? You're like a lot taller than your dad now.

Just wondering, have you thought about your children? You're still 5'5 in your genes, so if you have kids they could possibly be short too, would you want them to go through such an experience or deal with the feelings you had? Sorry if that's too serious of a question, it was something on my mind for myself

Nah it's no problem. If my kids want to get taller they can go through the same thing I did. It's going to be up to them. But of course who knows what the future holds. Perhaps improved technology can make it easier for them to be a normal height.  I'm not worried about my future kids at all.
