Wanted to know if it's a viable option out of curiosity, if after doing 8cm in femurs if it's possible to get surgery on my tibias at a later date. I would not push my tibias like my femurs, probably just 5cm in tibias.
Reason for so much gain in femurs (8cm) instead of something safer like 6cm, is because if I decide not to do tibias after femurs for whatever reason, I'll be happy enough having done 8cm as opposed to 6cm in femurs. I'm 5'7.5" and 8cm in femurs would put me at 5'10.5" which will make me happy enough.
But back to my original question is tibias a possibility (5cm) to bring me to 6ft+ or is it not recommended to do tibias at all if you did 8cm femurs?
This is a hypothetical scenario and wanted to hear opinions of people who have been on these forums longer than me.
I wouldnt just do 6cm in my femurs and stop (unless my body told me to) because in my mind anything less than 5'10.5 after LL I feel that I will be dissatisfied, IMO. I know everyone is different and has their different heights but I feel 5'10.5" is the minimum for me personally to feel happy with my height.
If i get 8cm in femurs is surgery possible later on my tibia? Or avoid it?
I was thinking maybe doing it to be over 6'0"-6'1" after fully recovering from femurs so i guess 2 years....
But rethinking it, I did the math, and 8cm femurs would put me at 5'10 3/4" which I think will make me more tha happy since I won't be berated for my height anymore at that height, or have a girl think I'm short.
Plus after being am acceptable height and going through the time and money loss with the first surgery I don't think I'll wanna do another surgery. Also I feel like I'll probably look really out of proportion being 6'1" with a 5'7 wingspan. Plus only benefit would be i'll just attract a few more shallow girls at 6'1" as opposed to 5'11" lol, which I won't care about at that point.
I don't think I'm gonna do it since I feel 5'10 3/4" will make me more than satisfied. I'll say I'm 6'0" and everyone will believe me because everyone lies about their height.
I agree with your above warning and will look more into doing less cm on my femur for better recovery. I need to be as healthy as possibly realistically anyway since I make money with construction. Not having a full recovery will hurt me more than anyone else here since my job is extremely physical and i'm not sitting at a desk all day.
