who has lost height after finishing LL?
« on: May 17, 2018, 11:04:50 PM »

When I finished LL I was 5'9. I'm 5'8 or 5'85 now. Who has lost height after finishing LL? Other cases apart from me?

I had a bit of a scare with my recent X-ray showing a loss of height with my left leg with .5 cm...but then my last X-ray showed that I haven’t lost any height. So my discrepancy is only around 1 cm due to congenital tibia length discrepancy. The doctor also measured both my legs physically too. This was also confirmed by my orthotist.
I waited more than two years before removing my nails mainly due to scare of refracture and height loss.

Are you saying you went from 5'9 to about 5'8.5? Or is it a full inch?
