Hi All,
I have been reading this forum over few years and now I have decided to do my femur lengthening with Dr. Giotikas using GNail. Is there anyone else who is looking at doing in the same time frame with Dr. G? It would be happy have a fellow LL mate to gang up with in the journey.

My surgery was yesterday, now in hospital. Everything looks good so far, waiting for challenging days.

Sure, I will write a diary soon once out of the next couple of days. I am 163 cm, aiming for 8 - 9. Doctor used 13mm nail for me and it can carry upto 95kg per leg so I am feeling confident to walk.

Hey all,
Sorry for delayed response. I am good currently around 6cm lengthening. I have had few issues (not any major complications) and also busy with starting back in to my work so couldn't start on my diary. I will at some point do a write up about my experience and opinion about this option.
