Accept it.
After reading about all of the drawbacks of this surgery it makes me feel like I want to accept my height and move on anyway.
it would be good
do not get this surgery
trust me... its not worth it... do not believe most of the positive stories... some are probably accurate, but most are not
accept your height, move on
If LL wasn't available, or just completely out of my means to get, it would it a whole lot easier to accept my height.
Just knowing that tibias is still on the table as a possibility makes it soooo hard to accept my height.
ı think if we can acceept this we shoudnt be here
Accept and move on might help you to some extant, but it doesn't change your life drastically. I honestly believe change of perception with few cms can have a tremendous effect on one's life. It happened to me from obese to slim and fit( although I always had high energy levels to attract others, it does make a difference how you are perceived)
Sad to say, I think I would still have a "short man's complex" and overcompensate in other areas of my life.
Finding out about LL has giving me hope that at least this area of my life can be corrected, or at least drastically improved. I no longer get offended if I hear "short" jokes, or when a friend, relative or people I do business with make a "short" remark about me. It's like they can no longer try to bring me down to their level when they see me succeeding in life, and the only thing that used to get under my skin rolls of me like water from a duck's back.
That being said, I still need to go through with LL, but at least as of right this minute the gamble is completely under my control.
Accept it, and move on in life while dragging this massive insecurity along with me. Something I did for almost 30 years (and did pretty well). It's very hard...but it can be done.

Whats your height?

If you do, I applaud you. I don't know if it's because you remind me of my younger self and I feel like I have a chance to warn my younger self about this surgery. But as I'm still sitting here in pain from the surgery even 7 months after the surgery, I can tell you that it's not worth it. If the drawbacks and risks weren't there, I'd say that it's worth it. Heck, even the price tag doesn't matter, because you can work more and pay it off. But you're playing russian roulette with your health here. Maybe if the pain went away and my life returned back to normal again, I'd change my tune and recommend this surgery. But seeing how other patients have had permanent issues, I can't really advocate for this surgery as "worth it". I mean, yes, it cured my height neurosis. But god damn do I want my life to just return back to normal. Who cares what I look like anymore. I just want to be able to have a normal day without aches and pains in my legs and feet.
