For there re very seldom tibia~femur veteran recovery experience. I want to know your opinion dear friend.
Thank you

Hi raku

I would say both can be safe if it is done right.  Safe means not much serious complication.  You can't expect 100% recovery (especially athleticism) after this much lengthening but can live 100% normal life after some time of recovery.
Plus, one surgery and one lengthening would be obviously safer or less potential problem than two surgeries and two lengthenings.  But two lengthening can be done and some patients have done that.

Good luck!

Most likely, if you do your tibias first, I'd say there will be a high chance you'll not want to do the surgery again. Also saying that, 8cm on your femurs sounds like hell, but I don't know enough and haven't read enough to comment. I did 5cm on my tibias and you can't pay me enough to do this surgery again. Ever.

Ok, you cannot expect 100% recovery, but how much recovery can you expect?

Hi TruthBomber

As far as I know about you, you are 6'2" already but want to do cll to be a real beast.  I respect your goal and know that some tall people like over 6' did cll.  It is up to you.  But you have to know you will never be able to get back to your 100% athleticism after cll.  It is so hard to say quantitatively how much recovery you can get.  You may recover muscle strength and some flexibility. But your muscles will not be as bouncy or responsive as before, meaning that jumping, sprinting, or any agile movements will be compromised to a certain degree.  Or at least it will take a long time and need tons of dedication to recover back to 100%.  Personally I have never seen any patient who recovers 100%.  I also did cll and am expecting just normal life.  I am not expecting any sport competition or intense sport.  I just want to live a normal life with me being taller.
If I were you, I WON"T consider cll.  CLL is a very very serious thing.  It is not a magic that can make you taller without any compromise.
Hope you change your mind!

I know I won't get 100% athleticism back, so I will just focus on a lot of squats to compensate along with human growth hormone or MK677 that would grow new muscle tissue in the legs as well as exercises and sports that focus on UPPER BODY. I'm fine with not having 100% athleticism, since you would be mogging everyone left and right anyway. What I want to know is how much I expect to retain? 90%? 80%?

As I said, it is so hard to say quantitatively how much athleticism you will regain after cll.  But I can tell you that you will lose quite a lot.  Not even close to 90%.  80%? I am not so sure but perhaps you will unlikely regain 80% either.  I read many people's diaries. One who did 7 cm in tibia said that he still feels not completely normal after 7 yrs of cll, especially when it comes to sports.  Of course, he is still happy that he is taller and lives pretty much normal life.  So I just want to tell you that you would be much better off not to consider cll if you expect like a beast or somebody extraordinarily strong.  I am also not going to answer your questions anymore since I am also busy and told you all my thoughts already.  It is up to you.
Good luck!
