CLL Partner/Group Planning September 2015 - India
« on: September 27, 2014, 07:28:54 AM »

Going to India next September (2015) and want to find a partner(s) to go with. Having a partner seems to have many benefits. We will be more confident and encouraged to go through with the surgery, potentially lower accommodations, less loneliness etc. I am currently set on Dr. Mangal Parihar in Mumbai. Let's get taller!

How is that appropriate or relevant to the topic?

I am simply a guy that wants to become taller. Sexual preference shouldn't matter. This is a serious forum with members that support each other

Completely inappropriate and uncalled for...

I am also interested in India though next year maybe too soon for me, partnering up with someone is a great idea, particularly if you're planning on doing externals only and staying there throughout the whole process. 10 months+ alone is not something Im looking forward to which was my original plan after I do femurs first lol

Hey TRS, how bad is the scarring from LATP? Has Dr Birkholtz said anything about scarring regarding LATP?
I was also thinking about LATP but worry about the extreme scarring..

Scarring is about 4cm from the plate insertion.
Dr.Birkholtz gave me two options:either full externals or plating because of my 8 degrees varus deformity on my tibias. He advised against LON because of the deformity.
He would use the hexapod system and then plate after distraction and alignment correction.

I am currently 171cm and will go for a 6.5cm gain. I have emailed Dr Parihar and he
Has told me he does not have a limit on how many patients he does a year (it looked like he only did 1 or 2/ year from his questionnaire thing)
I am 22 and figure 23 is pretty much the perfect age to get this procedure done. (More return on investment) I will be doing the external method.

I might join you if Parihar gets the Finnish nail and it's cheaper than 25kUSD

Tibial LON for 6cm- Nov 2013, Dr Sringari -177/178cm to 183/184cm
Prospective Femoral Lengthening w/ Precise 3 (if out) Nail for 7cm- Jan 2019, Dr Birkholtz -183/184cm to 190/191cm

And it was here that he professed to his disciples: all of life's bounties lay somewhere upon the dreaded bell curve

I'd still avoid India at this point after all the problems with Sarin and Sringari. Canadadude what made you decide on Parihar?

hey man yeah thats actually the time I was thinking about doing the surgery as well.  I'm 26 years old from and Oregon.  I totally agree a partner would be a good lubricant throughout the whole process.  May I ask why you have chosen your current dr. and what part of the legs are you going to get enhanced?

I live in Mumbai(Dr. Parihar's city) and will be doing LL with him next year. April/May to whenever.
Not a travel partner, but could give you some assistance about Mumbai.

I'd still avoid India at this point after all the problems with Sarin and Sringari. Canadadude what made you decide on Parihar?

Don't put Sarin and Sringari in Parihar's category. Same country, different doctors.

Also India isn't really scary. You won't even be doing anything shady, just staying at good hotels and travelling around in cabs and ordering food.
