Quote from: frankie on March 15, 2017, 12:05:09 AMHow much would Dr Parihar allow someone to lengthen their tibia with precise? I understand he allows 8 cm for femur but only allows max 6 cm for external tibia, so does that mean he only allows 6 cm internal tibia with precise?
No idea, sorry. I don't even know if he'll do internal tibia. You'll have to email him.
Before doing tibia you should do femurs, If you think there too long do 5 cm.
did you get x-rays again? It's been like 2 months since you got your last ones, right?
and a side question: since you're from Mumbai do you speak to everyone in Hindi or English?

I got mine around end-Feb, I've just been lazy with updates. I'll upload the ones I get next time.
Doctors: English, nurses/wardboys: Hindi.
Is internal tibia too risky?I mean if a person wouldnt prefer femurs and also externals,i think internal tibia is the last option,but the question is how dangerous is it?

Afaik internal tibias comparing to the other segments have risk of a permament knee pain.
Thank you for the answer penguinn but I have another question. How much money did you have in reserve for complications in case they came up? And how much would you recommend I have in reserve if I go with Parihar? Would 10K be enough?

How much ever, because my parents paid for the surgery. Yeah, 10K should be enough imo.
Also do you think there is a way I could get around having to give Parihar a contact who must know I am doing the surgery or is it really a must?

I don't think you could avoid that, no.
