I lost 2cm myself.

Just read your story up until now. Doesn't look good sorry to see.

Try to work hard and do lots of cycling if you can. Look in to your diet. You still look like you need to loose weight. It's easier for your body if you weigh less.

Best of luck.

why would anyone lose 2 cm on tibia?! I thought its a femur issue?

That's the way it is.

I measured myself for real at my doctors office here in Sweden and when I got back and recovered a bit I measured myself again at the exact same stadiometer. 173cm in 2012 and just barely 178cm in 2014.

I lengthened a tad more than 7cm and my doctor measured the gap at just a little bit more than 7cm in both legs.

That's the real deal for you.

that really sucks. are your legs angled? ie, ur tibia, so 7 cm to 5 cm that's nonsense.

RGKEY: thank you 

Sweden : alright, I'll see about that, and I'll let you know.

I'm afraid the cm lost is a fact. If you want 7 cm then you should aim for 8.5 cm during the lengthening, just to compensate for curvature and compression.

On the bright side, you might not look like a freak if you decide not to pursue the second LL. People will look at you as a person with slightly long shin bone, and even if you decide to add more cm onto the femur you wouldn't compromise your arm length too much.

about those posts where I was saying that telling someone about LL may not be as bad as you think .. !

well it seems it is .. ! cuz when situations turn bad the first thing ppl will gonna remember about you is that you HAD LL .. !

my guy he just said he wants nothing to do with me .. I know I gave him hard time "unintentionally".. but the first thing he mentioned to my friend that he has doubt about me since I had LL and lied about it for some period of time !
God I knew it ! !! I knew ppl don't change their mentality that easily ..!! even if they said so .. THEY DONT !!! 

I needed LL .. I know that .. I made couple of bad choices but I needed it ..!
my entire life has been waited to the moment where I'll be independent and do something that I really want like LL ..!

and here I'm 20 months post  LL .. all I know that I'm still short.. and when I walk in the mall I do feel ppl notice my funny walking due knock knee ..

I don't regretting LL.. I'm regretting some bad choices I made ..!

I'd be home this week and god this is killing me like nothing !  I know I would hear lot of negative comments .. !

I wish .. I wish I really be able to get back to my normal life .. I feel I'm hurt on all level .. and I'm no longer know what I want !!

Of course it is. LL is the alpha and omega of cosmetic surgeries. People are judgemental as is when it comes to cosmetic surgeries, let alone LL - it should blow their minds, in a way. Make up a story and just insist on it - that's it really, and always keep lying. They don't need to know about it, nor do they care to know, but they'd gladly judge you for it (if they get to know).

disobedient,

i think theres a chance you wont be recovered for a very long time

lengthening femurs and tibias at same time is never recommended

all you can do now  is  wait...
