Hi Guys!
I am new here and this is my first post. I am wondering how long time it would take from LL surgery to being able to live a normal live (even in with crutches). As far as I can read it takes about 6 months for lengthening 7cm tibia. I don't think when I am finally done with my education my workplace would allow such a long leave

My son is 8 months post-op, and he still is not walking normally. A little off, but way better than a month ago. So, ten months, post-op, is probably a good time frame.
im 20 months and not walking normally
my advice is... forget this surgery
What method did your son use, patientdad?
Internal femurs, precice 2, with Dr. Mahboubian in Los Angeles.

That's why I don't recommend precise... Full weight bearing is so important
What was your estimated amount paid in Los angelos? Is it affordable?
Affordable? If you have $100k to $110K. That includes the $20k to have the rods removed.
20k to have the rods removed? I always thought that was a very basic surgery that shouldn't cost more than a couple of grand
Pretty sure it is $20k. The anesthesiologist is almost $2k alone.
