What are the pros and cons of Parihar vs Giotikas for Americans?

Edit Post

Hey kilo what do u think Dr. Parihars height is.

I traveled to different cities in India for couple of months and I was careful with eating, hygiene, bottled water and stayed at high end hotels. I got the bacteria infection in my stomach and had to make several visits to a local gastrologist in USA to get rid of it. Disadvantage with doing the surgery in India is taking a risk to get sick.

You can get a stomach infection in the US also. It doesn't mean anything. Also, a stomach infection is not a big deal. Stop worrying about stomach infection limb lengthening is way more dangerous than a f**king stomach infection.

Hey Indian, what are your thoughts on getting nerve decompression during the first surgery w/ Parihar?

I heard Dr. Janet Conway does this, and I am wondering if it is worth the price

Edit Post

I am not sure man. You should ask this to a doc. My guess is as good as yours.

Yeah idk man 3-4 people in this forum said they got sick so far I think. Do you think wearing face mask/face shield/gloves everywhere except inside a hotel would be good? Or a waste b/c could just get sick from inside your hotel room?

Wearing a mask will prevent you from getting cold or flu. Don't worry about stomach infection at all. Even if you get it antibiotics will take care of it. You can get important vaccination for local viruses like hepatitis, rotavirus, and other stuff. Just decide your surgeon based on limb lengthening experience and not location. Dr lee has a really good center for rehab with stuff like swimex. Parihar and Giotikas don't have that. But in Korea there is a language issue and it's very expensive.

or you can visit India for a vacation for like 1-2 weeks eat food and stuff and see for yourself and come back to get the actual surgery later. In this case, even if you get sick it won't be a problem.

Yeah hmm...

I think an issue is like getting a disease on top of LL just sounds scary. Like its an unknown, would getting a stomach virus or malaria on top of lengthening be too much for the body? Would it affect someone's recovery? End up in a hospital in Mumbai for another disease? Although it may not sound like much it still seems like an unknown that is hard to quantify

Probably should be okay though, hoping to see more Mumbai diaries

And I have to think people from Mumbai are thinking "huh what the fk its fine here I've been here all my life"

I guess some people are not used to the Indian spices 🤦🏽‍♂️😂😂...
There are decent, high end restaurants in India too, just more expensive. Mc Donald, KFc everything is there... and high end hotels like Marriott ...
