You are clearly a troll. If you can't spread your message without being rude and obnoxious on someone else's diary you are as good as a troll.

Thanks for the update helloworld. Your diary is one the best. Please ignore this guy.

Cool be cool. I said Congratulations to Helloworld. I'm happy he's doing fine (even if his nail failed. My nail didn't fail but I had other problems and I'm not happy with my LL experience. Everybody deserves both sides of the story, the good and the bad side

Misaligned???
REally? I did not know about that. Please tell me more. Where do you see the misalignment?

It's indeed misaligned as with other Monegal patients (both tibia and femur). This can cause arthritis and other problems in the future. If the misalignment is severe you can also appreciate it from the outside

Just checking in to say that everything is going well.
Have not been thinking about limb lengthening. The new height is totally normal, could not imagine being shorter than I am now.

Just have one knee make a sound when I bend it.
Also, flexibility is almost same but not 100%.
Running normally.
7 kg heavier than before but not more fat. So I assume the weight of the additional bone and muscle.

Hope you're telling the truth about your case but I know your doctor had many bad cases, serious problems

Good luck

Just checked the forum after almost a year.
It has been almost 4 years since I was operated.
Time flies.
Was reading OldiebutGoldie post about his experience, saying that you do not have to have an operation done to feel better and that he would not do it again.

For me, even thought I was one of the tallest patients, I would do it again, because the benefits clearly outweigh the costs.
Of course, now, though I would still like to be taller, I would not do an operation for it, because now I have no more burning desire to be taller. So it is like with money, those people with a lot of money will tell you that money cannot buy happiness, but in fact if you have no money, you will be considerably unhappier. Likewise those who are tall will tell you that you will not be happier due to height, but they forget how it feels if you are short.

I am more confident meeting new people in business and especially when it comes to the oposite gender.
I had no complications and do an average of 14,000 steps per day, and run fast.

Was it a good choice: YES!

can you post a new sprinting video please?

Hello community.
I have not been here for over 2 years.
Wanted to see how some of the people I knew where doing.
Update on me: Everything is normal, no complication. Still happy that I did the operation. Not a massive height difference but it did boost my confidence overall.
