I see Mahboubian doing these lengths quadrilateral, bringing a 5'2.5 person to 5'9. From what I see I believe he is a good and safe doctor, although he may be heavy handed in the marketing. However, wouldn't you be in considerable pain after doing 13cm or 15cm? 8 femur + 5 tib (or 7 tib) or would you still be able to run and be flexible? Debiparshad also claims to be able to do 6 inches.
this is where my confusion is, 13cm would be 8cm in the femurs and 5 in the tibia. which both are considered safe lengths, the muscles in each section stretch independently, so I would assume combined its a bit more of a athletic loss than just doing one section alone, but Im not sure if doing it would have you running badly (If you took PT serious). nobody really has a straight answer that I can tell. either they say you'll be completely like normal or you'll be debilitated and i'm pretty sure neither are true.
if I did it with a USA doctor do you think id be able to be flexible and run after for 13cm? I'd probably only do 8cm in my femurs but i'm like 165cm so being barely 5'8 would be annoying and Idk if id feel completely comfortable at that height, assuming the 8cm didn't present me any issues id probably go for an extra 5cm to be 5'10 which is a slightly above average height if I had the time and money
thats the plan. yeah im aware the doctor doesn't change your physical capabilities, but it seems that they are more aware what each patients limitations are and what to do regarding complications vs people like Betz or budulu (idk how to spell it)
a lot of people on here are 5'8 and get CLL and it seems that 5'8 is still considered short by society so thats why I think I may go for 2 procedures
I didn't mean usa is safer vs developed Europe countries, i meant places like turkey or ppl like Betz who just let people do 10cm on one bone etc
however I do think paley is the absolute best option.
I may not need to get 5'10 from 5'8. I would only do a second surgery if I felt I needed it and the doctor thought it would be safe for me. correct me if I wrong but didn't the mod do 7cm in his tibia and also do it in somewhere less developed like China or India? I wouldn't go past 5 on my tibia. I plan to do 8cm femur after I get the money then hopefully never visit this forum again and never think about cll again. but if neccesary I would consider doing the tibia also.
I don't have 100k, or 75k, or 50k, or 15k, or 5k. im just out of high school but if things go according to plan ill be Able to afford cll eventually. I don't even want to do it right now because im waiting for stryde or an equivalent. but I want to know if I even want to do it in the first place and how much I want to do. The answers always vary so much so I stay on this forum trying to do more research. from what I can tell doing 8cm on my femurs with proper PT and doctor oversight I should be fine but I just reaserch to see the limits
why would you avoid Mahboubian? im not saying your wrong, just curious your reasoning. My #1 choice is definitely Paley however he is extremely expensive.
