You should probably get remeasured and stay as long as you need to get your leg length together.

Well not the doctor himself but the assistant or the care taker Sarin comes to check up on me once in a while make sure everything looks good as does his assistant.

Of course I'm not leaving until my legs are even but it's very common that your legs don't lengthen at the same rate once I get to my desired lengthen for one leg I stop lengthening and continue with the other and sarin can shorten my leg for the remaining difference of lengthen a little extra if it's only 1-1.5mm difference

Update:
Lengthening is still going well just about turned for 6cm. ROM in my ankles is still pretty good not too much pain. There is some pain in my left pin site at the ankle and some pain in my right knee on the left side but I never expected this to be painless so I will endure. Closer to the end then the beginning anyways exited to go home and start my recovery. So far I've been doing good with virtually 0 complications unless you consider pain a complication. Days go by slow and my sleep schedule is still all f*cked up but it's coming to an end. As far as the food goes the less picky the better but there are many food apps that deliver to you I personally like foodpanda,FreshMenu and Zomato. You can get away with not liking Indian food but your options will be fairly limited to Italian,Chinese , Japanese, and fast food. I guess American too but that's pretty much all fast-food lol.

Morissette you should do 6.5 cm at most, 8 is quite a lot even for femurs.

I'm not sure I can see it right but the callus looks very dark. Maybe you should take 2 days break from lengthening.

The right leg on the X-ray picture is bent. The other one looks bent too, but the rods on the frame are straight at least.
The rods on the right frame are bent. This will cause you serious problems. You will probably get Xlegs that will cause you arthritis in your knees.
You will not function normal without tramadol if that's the case.

It looks like you lengthen way too fast.

Hopefully you're fine.

My legs have always been a little bent like that minor deformity from birth I suppose. Anyways thank you for your concern so far so good I'm taking a a break tomorrow and possibly the next day to let my soft tissue relax. Xlegs is caused by muscle atrophy in the IT band and is relatively unpredictable all I can do is some leg excersices and hope for the best honestly but so far there are no signs of xlegs and I'm closer to the end then the beginning

x-LEGS is caused by bone deformity... Has nothing to do with muscle atrophy or other bull

What? Xlegs is when you walk with your femurs extremely adducted no bone deformity? IT band and tensor fascia latae abduct your femur and when they are weakened or "shortened" it causes your femurs to cave inwards because the adductor brevis, adductor longus and gracilis muscles are exerting to much force to even it out.
Long story short it's a muscle imbalance

https://imgur.com/a/fYz8r This an X-ray 10 days into lengthening my legs are bent the exact same way if it was an early sign of xlegs it would have gotten exponentially worse 1.5 months later. Not everyone is built the same simple as that. My Tibias isn't going to get deformed I have a metal nail going through it which ensures it won't get crooked.

Valgus or equinous of the knees is caused by either problems with the allignment of the tibias or the coxo-femoral joint. Nothing to do with muscle imbalances... If that was the case, everyone would have them since everyone today are lazy couch potaotes.

 Btw, I am not attacking you or your doc since I didnt look at the X-rays. Just pointing out about what are X-legs

I know don't worry I've grown to tell the difference when someone is being genuine and we just disagree and a troll. And how would my knee become unaligned(serious question I'm sure it's happened before)? In my line of work I help people with muscle imbalances everyday and i have seen Xlegs obviously not as severe as some cases with LL but I believe the big difference is yes most are couch potatoes but they still take at least 5000 steps a day. Enough to keep the muscles somewhat strengthened. As for me I haven't taken a step since September 1st

As far as I know the girls are doing fine. The two local girls don't speak English so I base this off of solely watching them walk without crutches. The American guy is having a bit of a harder time with internals. He wasn't able to move his right leg for about a week so he took a break and the movement is back. Although it's his second surgery on femurs with sarin he's stopping at 4cm

Hey GirlOnine,

Even I am a LL aspirant from Hyderabad,I understand you are considering for internal Limb lengthening with Dr Sarin.

I actually visited some of the patients in Dr. Sarin's guest house in month of July.
I met a  patient there who has performed interal LL in tibias and  he got serious complications , his HLN rod (Internal method used by Dr Sarin) is leaking with fluids after 2 weeks and he had to undergo another surgery to get it fixed.
Even after it was fixed he could not able to move his legs even after 6 months.

Most of the internal LL patients with Dr Sarin suffered with complications.

Please think thoroughly about this surgery and choose your doctor wisely.

Wish you the best!

That patient said to me that its issue that happened during the surgery,even I agree with him as first 2 weeks they usually under the regular care of doctor.

I also met a patient of Netherlands, he had performed lengthening on both feumers (internal) and tibias (external) at 6.5 cm and 7.5 cms respectively.he has given good feedback about Dr. Sarin. but we could not able to walk that time.

there are also two Indian sisters who are performing externals but I could not able to talk with them.

Even Dr.Sarin does not  come to visit guest house every day, Its only the physio guy who sees the patients every day, that happens even with Parihar.

Anyway I am not to suggesting you any doctor.I would suggest to talk with current patients of doctor before going forward.


bty the guest house is not owned by Dr Sarin , he only has tie-up with the guest house owner so his patients can stay and couple of  Dr Sarin patients stay in nearby hotels as well.

You can probably check for service apartments if are planning going with Dr Parihar.

I am 25 yrs old.

I wasn't here for the month of July so I couldn't say I was here with the Netherlands patient tho and we talked a lot about patients who were here when he was and he told me 1 patient got a serious infection and had to stop at 5cm due to it that may be who he's talking about

hiii i read the msg of rack, I know that patient who suffered from seriouse complication that was due to the leakage of liquid in bone, so this is the one main  disadvantage of Hydraulic nail but the exteranals are safe in this way. and If you have so much money than go for precice nail. If you have doubts than go directly to doctor, If you ask questions here, then every body guides you in a different way.

Not like before, maybe after 2 years. you should wait for your weaker new bone to be fused completely.

100% recovery is myth forget about it, you will never achieve it, but the good news is, you can't fell the differences because you're not an professional athletic, so don't worry and do the surgery.

Update:

At the 7cm mark. Pain is still tolerable to has risen in the past week(to be expected). I now see my initial goal of 9cm would have been impossible at least for me.  After going through this experience I believe I will be able to appreciate everyday life and just little things a lot more then before as cliche as that may sound. My pin sites are getting really sensitive and I have troubles straitening out my legs completely. Also some knee stiffness other then that every thing is still the same. I can't wait to get these god damn devil frames off of my legs it'll such a relief.

I think 7 cm its your time to hang gloves. stop here 7 is already a lot for tibia. each mm means a month or more of recovery, please stop it now. anyways you were strong during this time
