Why not just say its for a limb length discrepancy? They'll google the surgeon and see the doctor is a specialist in limb lengthening and since you wear lifts your height won't change.

Most people have no clue about LL. It just won't cross their mind when someone is away for months. To put this idea in their minds is a terrible idea.
Here is Donghoon Lee's take on Stryde:
Not too optimistic. ![[Serious] Please give me reasons to give to my employer](http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/Smileys/default/sad.gif)
Yes but it wont be a total lie and you can explain away anyone who googles the surgeon.

HR are people, but they also should be held to a much higher standard when it comes to personal medical leave. I was at a small company before my current stint at a FAANG (which have extremely strict HR procedures), and had to be out for a month. The HR there was fantastic at shielding my coworkers from my condition (I had a really bad disease for a month and couldn’t breathe) and they did likewise with another coworker who left for 3 months before returning — even now I don’t know why she was gone for that period of time. If that company of all companies could do it right, I’m sure yours can too. Have a little faith in other people ![[Serious] Please give me reasons to give to my employer](http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

They will be professional for the most part. But you just can't stop people from socializing and talking when they meet each other. And HR people are the most social by nature.
Your health condition was not something that would generate a lot of curiosity and judgement. But LL is something that would pique everyone's interest. Look at how they write news articles on the topic.
I guess I'm just very paranoid.
