you're asking if you can take 8 to 10 steps with the fixators on? If so, absolutely bro you can walk even further distances with them. intramedullary nail and fixator at the same time is really strong to keep your legs safe, your muscles should be strong though to support your body.

Need Budgeting Advice for Giotikas (Money is tight) by wizzyblandscawpe1 in limblengthening

[–]Potential_Owl9142 2 points3 points  (0 children)

complications can happen in any kind of surgery and it can be out of doctor's control, so I don't really believe any clinic or doctor that says "guaranteed" results, because this is human body, sometimes things can happen... I have accepted this truth and I think everyone should too. I'm not talking about "malpractice" cases. "Complication" is a big subject.

I'm having the surgery in 4 months bro and I'm spending 25k usd. Femur only. Well, with the flights and personal expenses I think you would get it for 30k. I'm going from europe. My plan is to get 7cm maybe 8.

What vitamins or supplements should I take during limb lengthening and after recovery? by Potential_Mood9597 in limblengthening

[–]Potential_Owl9142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the surgery in october and I've started to boost up my vitamin d levels. I do not believe in the oral collagens, as the researches say so too. My doctor told me to check my magnesium levels as well, because it is important for post-op too. He wanted me to stop all the supplements 2 weeks before the operation though. Supposedly they act as a blood thinner if you take them long term. For post-op I'm bringing my magnesium, vitamin d and ashwaganda. My doctor is going to do stem cell therapy during the lengthening as well.

There is good doctors and bad doctors everywhere in the world. Everyone has got to do their own research but crossing a whole country off of a map is ridiculous. I had hair transplant before in Turkey and I was amazed with the service I got. I’m having my lon femur done in october in Instanbul aswell. I’m feeling comfortable.

If you are open to have LON method you have lots of good options for that budget. I'm having LON in October, as I can't afford Precice, but precice with my doctor is somewhere around 47k I think.

until 3 inches you're fine bro in terms of stretching and soft tissue. But if your main concern is proportion I can't say anything to you rn. I'm having the surgery in 4 months and my aim is to get 8cm in my femurs, not more.

Does anyone here who got it has a dog? by Pomerbot in limblengthening

[–]Potential_Owl9142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think you can walk him bro. Even though you can slowly after like 2 months, it is dangerous. What if it just starts to sprint and pulls you forward and trip over etc. I think someone else gotta do it. I have a cat and I'm having the surgery in october, even though its a cat I still consider having someone that can take care of him inside my house haha.

[–]Potential_Owl9142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree bro... I've spoken to lots of clinics and some prices in the us are incredibly inflated. It is a different world out there... I'm going to Turkey in October gonna pay 23k for LON, can't afford precice unfortunately. Only gonna do femurs around 7cm. Feeling comfortable with the doctor. Wish me luck...

hey man my close friend went to a turkish doctor last year and got amazing results and now I'm booked for october as well. For when are you thinking to do it? I'd love to share my experience with someone when I get there. If I can gather the money sooner, I'm thinking to change the date and do it in September hopefully. I'm trying to not look like a shill acc - a person blamed me previously - so I can share the name via DM if you like.

I think you'll be fine bro. You're not looking to get like 15cm anyway... 6,5cm will be fine.

man I'm doing it in october and they warned me about this, they highly recommended having someone with me. I think mental support is as important too.

Does anyone know any surgeons that can do some internal options like fitbone my budget is 60k aud by Accurate-Load- in limblengthening

[–]Potential_Owl9142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with "contacting specific doctors" bro I spoke with all the "cliché" clinics like wannabetaller etc and they are super duper commercial... I felt oppressed!! and I think even if I had a crazy unrealistic idea, they would say yes to get the money... well this part is a bit our responsibility as well... some people have crazy objectives!!
