I’ve been browsing this forum for years now on and off and despite my hardest efforts to find any actual proof of patients being even remotely normal after this surgery I’ve yet to find any. It seems like any video posted on YouTube by these cll institutions are usually always fake spliced videos, and are definitely not showing the full picture. As for this forum, I’ve yet to see anyone send videos of them even doing basic athletic drills, or anything remotely tasking on the legs. I’m not expecting someone to be fking Usain Bolt after bone extension, but a basic sped up video of someone running on a treadmill for 30 minutes would be tolerable enough.

So I guess that leaves the question, has anyone ever actually had an even slightly decent outcome? Is there maybe some threads I happened to miss or something? Cause it truly does seem like it’s either you get taller but are forced to crab walk around for only 10 minutes at a time before taking breaks, or no surgery at all. Cause as of right now I still haven’t seen any good or concrete proof to show someone can even gain 50% of there abilities back let alone 75% or higher.

I have been lurking this forums since the beging of time haha

These videos exist or existed, I have seen them, BUT recovery takes longer than commonly believe, talking years, 2-3 years of constant PT and exercise

But exactly how genuine were these videos?? Were they cut/spliced? What was the person doing? Basic jogging for a 30 second video or genuine sprints or cardio for an extended time frame. I’m not denying these videos exist, more that I’ve legitimately never seen any that look real and legit. As for the time frame I feel like universally everyone knows it doesn’t take only about a year and a half to be back to full health. A year and a half to be able to walk normally and continue going out with people sure, but weight lifting, running etc would obviously take more then 1 year

Because in reality there are very few people in the world out there that actually do LL because of it's time and financial investment + there are non-institution videos where post-LL patients show their athleticism ( mostly jumping, squatting, dancing and/or running ), but most of them are only couple of minutes long. I doubt anyone would do a full athleticism video that goes fully into how you describe like this video:



Closest person that I know of that fully documents their journey and regularly post exercise video is height journey ( quad patient )



Honestly if you want a 30 min - 1 hour long video you probably have to pay them or something.

I got my nails in me n I work 10 hrs a day. Working delivery.  I've done it all the normal task. A case of water going up stairs Maybe not that cus I can't even lift that much. 28 bottles but 40 bottles is too much.
