Title: 15K USD Budjet
Post by: rami on June 08, 2018, 01:05:06 PM

Hello,

I am interested to increase my height 5 cm only.

What is the fastest method within that budget that can allow me to walk without support after the removal of external fixators?

That doesn’t exists.. sorry ! When you remove the frames you have to wait for you’re consolidation to walk without support ! So with chance you will be able to walk in 8 month since the surgery!

I believe LON can do that in 4-5 months post surgery, 8 months is not the fastest.

I talk with people who did it and they all wait 8-9 month to walk without crutches. I can’t believe you can walk without support after 4-5 month because you’re consolidation is not done yet so how it could be possible..
you can ask to the veteran of this forum or the dr you will see :)

I will do my shin in November so if it was 4/5 month I will be happy ahah but we have to be realistic it’s impossible !

With 15k usd the best you can do is avoid LL or you'll end up a cripple.
Save about the double and then do external tibias in a professional doctor.
