Hello every one
my age 33, and my original height is 161 cm and average hight here in my country is 168 cm .
I scheduled my femur lengthening using the internal method of a precise nail on April 28, 2021, my goal was to hit 8 CM. However, the last X-RAY showed poor bone healing, and my Doctor recommended that I stop lengthening at 4 cm or 4.5 ( depends on x- ray scheduled end of this week) .
My worries are why should I stop at 4.CM if I can reach 6 CM or at least 5.cm to get the minimum advantage of the Leg lengthening procedure.
The Surgery day On April 28 On May 4th, 2021 Start lengthening a 1mm per day On June 3th 2021 Doctor request me to slow lengthening rage to .5 mm per day On June 20 2021 I reach 4 cm.
Anyone had similar experience and how to overcome this issue and gain max possible hight safely ?
MY x ray at 3.7
