8+5 CM F/T is a lot bro, I did 8 CM femurs first thinking I would do tibia later, but opted to just stay at 175 CM, the surgery is no joke, and I actually enjoy being athletic and playing soccer so I wouldn't go for more height, besides at 8 CM I'm at the verge of pushing it proportion wise, where a lot of people would start noticing shorter arms and torso. also as for Dr. tim O'carrigan... I wouldn't recommend a doctor that has 0 diaries or x rays of his work to show for... and from the crooked X-rays that I've been seeing coming from Giotikas, I wouldn't recommend him either! these are your legs... you won't get another pair, if you're going to do this thing, do it right, you don't want to end up with crooked bones and stuff that can improve your chances of complications more than the procedure does by itself already even with the top doctors.
The goal - STRYDE Nail - Tibias & Femurs - 13cm

Hey Movie!
Thanks for the advice. I actually read through your whole diary. It's good to get advice from someone who has been through it. The only issue is that currently it's hard to get an outgoing flight to anywhere overseas due to COVID - but we've got it almost under control here so flying domestic is pretty easy. Greece might also be an option but the US seems off the cards due to the numbers. I've heard good thing about Giotikas. You've kinda convinced me to stick with Femurs - but I might still hear what the doctor would have to say about my proportions and possible outcome.
Awesome diary by the way man!

Hi Movie,
Could you please tell me where you saw crooked x-rays in Giotikas dairy ? Also, can you please give your feedback on the best surgeons for CLL in countries other than US ?
Regards
