Hi everyone🙋,I'm a young male(just 21 years old).I have spent a lot of time reading the patient's diary (in fact i'm a newbie there ☺) and I think this forum is great.
Currently I'm 176/177 cm and I really would like to be at least 180 cm.The best option would be achieving 182/183 cm,that would be great.I was asking my self which method would be the best,if you have some tipes for me,that would be great.
★I would prefer doing tibias because having longer tibias is aesthetical better than having longer femurs (in my opinion)
★I would do this only in USA or Europe,considering other patient's experiences like Sweden,crimsontide and others.
It would be great if anyone would explaine me the differences between LATN( i know the acronyme is "lengthening and then nailing" but i didn't understand what it does imply) and LON.
I'm clealrly not English nor American so i'm apologizing for my bad writing skills.
I know i don't have a bad height (i'm deeply aware that some members of this forum wish had my height,so it's not my intention to seem like an or greedy man) but it's obvious that guys that are 6' feet have a lot of noticeable advantages.And a lot of young male are above 5.10'
Best regards for all of you
First of all,thank you for replying Bander 72☺.No,I'm not excluding any method because of the budget,i'm seeking the best one which would me allow to gain at least 5 cm with the minimal pain and effort.However i'm a aware that is impossible to be painless.If i'm not wrong,the Penguin's case 😮was the only surgery with pain level mostly equal to 0/1.
I still don't understand the sense of inserting both the nail(are you talking about an extensive nail like Precice ?) and frames(do you mean ilizarov frames ?). If i didn't misunderstand those 2 metods seem ibrid methods(?).
Greetings
Hi Body Builder🙋,thanks for replying. In fact I live in Italy and Catagni & Pili are italian doctors.The distance between my current location and Milan is 2 hours(train). I was wondering why are you stateting it would be easy🙈.Sweden clearly told us to not do more than 5 cm on tibias in a lot of posts of his diary.
I gues you're recomending pure external because using internal nails (or hybrid methods) seems to encourage the permanent knee pain.I've read a lot about this in forum. Feel free to correct me whenever you thinks i'm stating wrong things.
PS:May I ask you if you did LL ? Because i've read a lot of diaries but not all of them.
However thanks for sharing your experiences with we "new" guys,you',re great guys !✊✊
Thank you very much for your answer,it's very clear now ☺
So you're recomending hybrid technique.I've read in Forum about knee permanent pain as a common complication when there are involved nails 😩,what do you think ?
May I ask you if you did LL ? I've spent a lot of reading diaries but i didn't read all of them.Surely I will
I would also know if you know a patient with my starting height.I guess I have a good starting height since all of diaries that i have read are dealing with "shorter" patients😐.I'm thinking about Sweden(173 cm),crimsontide(165 if i'm not wrong),RGKEY and others.
Are you living in Bologna,mr TIBIKE😊 ? Such a beautiful city....I have been there 5 months ago,it was an antiracist big party celebrating the Liberation Day(25 April),such good day and divertissment😃
However,yeah I know the Italy was stated as a medium-low country considering the height.But things changed a lot😅,now the young generation has outmatched even the american one.I remember clearly reading this in a lot of articles.We now are stated as 177 cm but it is counting also the old generations.I almost sure the average height of young people is now 180 cm.Clearly an height that would be slightly above that would be great.That would allow you to feel tall without be regarded as too tall/giant🙆.I have a friend which is a pure 183 cm,he is perfect.Obviously he is not towering me but the difference is clearly noticeable.
Yeah,thanks for the advice.I'm thinking up alot on this surgery,it's a serious thing😥
Thanks a lot for the advice. I'll look Polycrate's case,analizing it deeply.I doesn't feel really bad with my height but I have the sensation that at 182,183 cm I could surely be at my maximum level.It implies doing 120% in all things.
I think it's hard to explain.However I don't want to be disrespectful toward shorter people.
Thank you for replying,dear Doomsday✋
I think you have misunderstood,I said doing tibias will be more aesthetic,non atletic.
I have absolutely no issues with girls or people.I would say that a higher height has a lot of vantages😔(more possibility to acquire better job positions,more physical intimidation,of course more odds with girls but I don't have problems with them).Being 182/183 cm or at least 180 cm it was my dream.Doing so I would able to be a "tall guy" in the most country of the world☺.
I'm very good at football(i'm a stricker and play in a team) so it is quite disappointing😑 I will never recover my abilities.However i'm skilled but not enough to beacame a professional player so I really don't care much about.
It seems you've done tibias, may I ask how are you doing now ? Did you regret LL ? Feel free to send me a PM if you want privacy.
Best regards
So,you're even taller than me...Wish I had your height...Honestly I didn't understand the part of "wearing a 30 inch steam". What does it mean ?
However,so you will do the surgery with Salameh....Interesting,I really didn't heard much about this doctor...
Why did you choose him ? Are there in forum some of his patient'diary ?
