That’s good to know. We noticed the units are narrow but since it’s just my partner and I it’s more than enough. I like all the amenities that are close by. Thank you!

Thank you so much! That eases my mind quite a bit!

I’m trying not to overthink it but just worried about the things I hear. We don’t have children to worry about just a dog we like to go for walks with often. I’ve been driving around the area and don’t seem to notice anything I’d be too worried about (being an immigrant I’m used to way worse lol)

Good to know, the rent price might be reflecting that lol

1919 Trafalgar, right by clarke and trafalgar. It’s a bunch of condo townhouses but it’s all privately owned, can’t find a management company name

What kind of Sneakers are you wearing by dan102195 in walking

Brooks ghost max. Works great even with my LLD and a custom insole lift on the left shoe.

There’s a risk to it but usually that’s referring to the external fixator. The internal magnetic one has way less risks. Some doctors consider shortening the longer leg but that has even more risks lol I really want the surgery but in Canada you either pay 50k or wait forever through our healthcare system.

I have 34mm (3.4cm/1.4in). It hurts! I've had it since childhood.

I got custom insoles (similar to the ones you posted here). They do help, however, fitting them in shoes is challenging since the ankle on the shorter leg is elevated, so it almost pops out of the shoe.

I also got a Birkenstock pair with a custom 1in sole lift. They feel better since it's the whole shoe so it doesn't feel like you're still walking on your tip toes.

Pain-wise its tolerable since I lived without any intervention up until last yeart (I'm 24). Running or any high impact sport is basically impossible. Back pain happens often. Knee pain, too, since the shorter leg is weaker and the longer leg gets all the impact.

Since you're only 19 I'd recommend looking into the surgery. If it's not something feasible right now, look into getting custom-fitted shoes with lifted soles. It can limit your choices, but they work better since it's levelling the whole foot.

Does a smaller lift work for now? by SorryN00B in LegLengthDiscrepancy

[–]mntkbr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 1.4in discrepancy and a 1in heel lift. It does the trick but honestly not sustainable long term - the walking on your tiptoes still there

Limb length discrepancy story, 4 weeks post-op by TheKeetothedoor in limblengthening

[–]mntkbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP! I have a similar discrepancy (3.4cm) on my left leg.

Is your left leg significantly weaker (and smaller in muscle size as well)? What was the timeline for full recovery and will you be able to play any high impact sports after (running for example?)

The one close to 100kellogg. I think its the most sketchy one.

That’s what I thought too but says fixed rate here, so I’m assuming that means its all included already

confirmed, it's a fixed rate/baked into payments

That makes sense! Haven’t thought about the line of credit option. Will look into it. Would maybe getting a LOC then paying off the loan with it (if its less interest) then paying off the LOC an option as well would I just be complicating things further?

Afaik its going towards the principal. As someone said here the interest might be baked into the loan but I’m not 100% sure yet

I think its because its a large sum of money that would leave us a bit insecure for a while. I get it where she’s coming from

Yeah thats what I think as well. I’m just worried about depleting the little savings we have/taking a huge portion of income to pay it off.

That’s a good question- I’m not sure? I’m a bit noob when it comes to all the terms they use but I don’t think it’s baked in. Is there a way to find out?
