Hi guys! Newbie here!

Any stories about women who have done this surgery? Or wants to do LL in the near future?
I would love some inspiration from my fellow girls! Hehe

I'm a 21 Y.O girl, who really wants to do LL hopefully by 2018. Always wanted to do this surgery since I was 19 but I need to save up heaps of $$$ since this surgery is very costly.

Also any doctors you guys can recommend? Feel free to comment below.

Thanks guys!! Hope to hear from yous

Lack of funds = external tibias = ugly scars on girls' legs so make sure you want this.

Thanks for the reply peguinn and also for the links!

I've heard about scarring so I'm hoping to get the internal method, that's why i'm trying to save up as much as I can.

I've read your diary with Dr. Parihar too, i'm also considering him.
$43,000 seems achievable within 2 years time, and affordable considering its the Precice 2.

43k + You need to get some money for accommodation and unexpected complications.

Luxedreamer · « **Reply #4 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:08:06 AM »

Yeah, I figured lol

YourSpaceBoyfriend · « **Reply #5 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:12:14 AM »

Well for reference, Kilokahn's surgery costed like 12-15k but he spent good 30k(correct me if im wrong).

Luxedreamer · « **Reply #6 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:23:48 AM »

Wow! That's double the initial LL cost

I'll probably needs to save up atleast $30-40k extra just to be safe.

You won't need close to that much extra, unless you start dancing with the Precice nails in, snap both your femurs and need to do it all over again.

Luxedreamer · « **Reply #8 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:31:10 AM »

Haha! I'm including the cost of accomodation and expenses on that one

By the way, did Dr. Parihar mentioned the cost of the nail removal? Or Is that included in the $43k?

Penguinn · « **Reply #9 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:32:05 AM »

Actually, I haven't even brought that up.

Luxedreamer · « **Reply #10 on:** October 03, 2016, 11:43:15 AM »

Oh really?
I highly doubt it, but i'm hoping it's included..

Avoid external surgery if you planing femur

Musicmaker was a woman too. Worst case in LL history. Fractures, misalignments, pseudoarthrosis, failure of implants and she can't walk and she has spent in 2 years more than 100k for femurs

I am still a woman. I never had pseudoartrosis, but, of course, you don't have a clue about LL and orthopaedics, and say patients suffer from it even 4 months after having started lengthening. I haven't spent 100k. I have had a hard time, but my doctor helped me all the time. There are plenty of cases like mine in LL history, so I am not the worst. You can check whenever and wherever you want and you will find that Paley, Guichet and all doctors have had cases like mine (I know some patients from Guichet who have had issues like mine; check Paley struggling with tibiae time after time). You carry on attacking me and my doctor and defending others who have had similar or worst cases, but I have seen that people from all over the world have come here and they are doing fine. In fact, Barcelona will be the city where the next Fitbone meeting will be celebrated and Dr Monegal will perform surgery for other doctors to learn from him. At this moment he is the second Fitbone surgeon in the world. You should keep all this in mind.

Musicmaker please summarize your situation because am curious

Musicmaker is still under doctor's care and she suffers from Stockholm syndrome. She won't tell the truth.

Ahhhhh i got it, you know what i think. Really am sure there are some patients got threaten from doctors if they said the truth they will not help them (during complication) btw i don't mean Musicmaker at all

Precice is cheap? I thought it's the most advance and most expensive.

YourSpaceBoyfriend · « **Reply #18 on:** October 10, 2016, 01:57:55 AM »

Well you can get Precise 2 lengthening cheaper than Albizza nail(Guichet and Betz) lengthening.

onemorefoot · « **Reply #19 on:** October 10, 2016, 02:20:38 AM »

Even in that way, precice is still expensive.

There is no Albizza anymore, now G-nail

onemorefoot · « **Reply #21 on:** October 10, 2016, 02:32:40 AM »

Yeah but G-nail is based on Albizzia.

You must be really fun at parties.

G-nail is just more sturdy Albizza, that's all.
