Some kept it a secret, some shared with close friends only.

I plan to tell my friends and family, then say nothing to anyone else.
What about people who are already operated and kept it as a secret? How was ur friends reaction seeing u r taller? Just curious about this
I only told my immediate family and my gf. I am 10 months post op and my gait is 100% normal again. I have seen most of my friends and I would say about 50% noticed / mentioned I looked taller. I have laughed at / played off the reactions and people have seemed to forget about it after some initial shock. Since the first time it hasn’t ever been brought up again and people are used to my new height. I was very worried about reactions but as time goes on you legit stop caring and the reactions aren’t as bad as you think they will be. I went from about 163.5cm to 171cm btw and the people that noticed the most were close to my original height and I am now either taller or the same height as them.
That exactly what i plan to do, only inmediate family. I dont fear the comments such as "u look taller" bc i consider those as a really good ones.
Btw, how is ur running with such a lengthening?
I'll say I just experienced a bone injury accident so I happend to grow taller thereof and nothing else.
Most of ppl have no intimate knowledges of Orthopedics so it's very easy LOL.

The funny part about this is that excuse is *literally* true.

Does bone injury, falling off the bike or car accident, actually make one taller a little bit? For good?

I have done a few light jogs and it feels fine with no pain but a bit awkward since I haven’t run for so long and since full healing takes a while. I will try and sprint in a few months.
