The two people I trust have really recoered more or less completely are shyshy and christopherbuilder. Look up their videos on here, they might never be professional athletes but they can run, dance and jump like they could before.
But as long as you don't feel short it's worth all the damage then, teehee.

I can dance well, jump ok (haven't really tried the high jumps yet), and I think I can run too, but haven't really tried to yet. I will soon. I've been feeling the urge.
I hope I get to ski again as well as I did, I love skiing.

Not everyone needs the titanium nails.
LOL. He clearly does advertise aggressively. Just read what he wrote on this forum. And how he vanished because he couldn't give answers to some critical questions.He is not a normal person. You will find out in case you get a serious problem. I know him. He is a notorious liar and can't be trusted.
Yes, not everyone needs the titanium nails. But the main reason people get titanium is because their bones are not healing properly with the Betzbone. The patients you met during your consultation and who were doing fine may very well get their problems later after they finished clicking. They will the get the titanium for 17k Eur. And in case the problems remain they will need to go to another doctor since Dr. Betz will completely ignore them.
Anyway, do what you want.
Did the HGH/testosterone patients take the drugs during or after lengthening? How did it affect their lengthening/recovery? I'd never take those drugs personally, but I am just curious.
After seeing your original photos before you did LL you had long tibias and short femurs to begin with. I think you should have just done femurs as I imagine you tibias are close to equal your femur length. Is it affecting your bio-mechanics? Even if it makes you look a bit weird proportionally you may have to do femur now.

I don't even know where to begin...... Christ!!!
Everyone needs to understand that we are all equal proportionate as long as we don't suffer from any kind of disease.
No, my tibias weren't longer than anyone else who was 173. They weren't equal to my femurs.
Femurs are ALWAYS!!!! the longest bone in your body.
I had very muscular thighs before and that could have made them look like they were on the shorter side.

If people would try out a racing leather suit they would understand that the all come proportionate as long as your not heavily obese. A suit which is size European 48 will fit a normal guy of 170cm. It will fit the legs, upper body and the arms.
EVERYONE IS PROPORTIONATE TO BEGIN WITH!!!!

He took it for several years, during and after lengthening. He did both segments.
The guy will never recover properly.
He went to Dr Betz.
Sweden you always talk about how difficult the recovery phase is and how most patients never recover completely but what can a LL patient do to ensure a good recovery in your opinion?

A good question, thanks for asking.
Try to go to a good doctor. Be very well educated in what you need to do during lengthening. What to eat and all that.
Don't exceed 1mm/day, take some rest days when you need it. Learn to listen to your body.
As soon as you'll get any trouble then work hard on just that part.
Exercise your upper body, a lot.
Drink lots of water.
After frame removal or nail is locked then walk around as much as possible. Impact to the ground builds the bone and not bone graft or supplements.
Visit the physio therapist even if you think it's pointless. He will measure your gains, even the small ones you never see.
Keep exercise and eat right for the rest of your life! What more do you need?
This is what you can do to lower the risk of complications. Genetics has a lot to do with this too and that's nothing you can change. You might have right muscles or tendons so you'll get a harder time lengthening.

My biggest issues comes from not moving around for 4-5 months. That's just terrible. But I had excellent bone regeneration bc I walked as much as possible when I got back home from India and eat everything I could find that helped my healing.
Tomorrow I will begin with all this again to fix my x-legs once and for all. I'm sick of it now. Muscles shall be back
