Total Time Commitment

I am interested in LL and have begun researching the process. The single most important factor, besides doctor, is the amount of total time it will take. This is highly important as it will determine when I have the surgery, if I have it.

Start date: day of surgery
End date: the first day I can walk around normally and experience a normal day (but does not include running, exercise, etc.)

About how long can I expect it to take from the start date to the end date?

Thanks!

Thanks afonso!

Follow-ups for you or anyone else who can comment:

1. Is the consolidation period directly proportional to the total lengthening or is it exponential, etc? I would plan on lengthening 6.35 cm, so would the consolidation period be proportionally less than 45-60 days or is the 45-60 days a fixed amount regardless of lengthening amount?

2. Is Precice II Internal Femur the fastest method? Is there a tradeoff between speed and safety?

If anyone has the link to that chart it would be appreciated. I shall try to find it myself.
