MyEvolution,

I wish you a good recovery.
Mind If you tell me what your wingspan/sitting height was?

Best Regards

Man stop spamming this site with irrelevant questions and posts. If you have read both his diaries he has already mentioned it in the past. Go look for it

I wish you the best of recovery MyEvolution. I would also encourage quick thinking by prospective patients.

Look out for complications and consult multiple doctors for a different point of view.

Hey MyEvo, I missed your post about your infection. I hope all is getting better now. One question tho


You said a month ago or so you might post pics? I would really love to see em!

Cheers man, I hope you are doing good well. 5'5 to 5'11 is no joke, honestly amazing. You are one of the most inspirational diaries on this site.

Thanks for the amazing diary, MyEvolution.

I'm thinking about doing either femur or tibia, about 2 inches, with Dr. Paley but can't make up my mind which yet.
Are the scars very noticeable for both the femur and tibia? How do they compare?
Are they gradually progressing towards small scratches?

hey froggy
if youre really worried about scarring i would probably consider femurs as the scars are much less noticable and easier to hide

yeah its not just the number of incisions but also the placement
heres a vid of mahboubian doing a live vid  ( warning for those that get squeemish)


if you get your tibs done you gotta pretty wear long pants for 2-3 years for the scars to heal nice
uv exposure can cause hyperpigmentation

Hey guys update
So i finished 6 weeks of Vancomycin
No more legs pains anymore at all
Infection is also gone
Hopefully everything keeps going good for another couple months

Back in the gym too doing squats and leg presses, dr robbins said my max limit is 300lb which i already been hitting lmao but whatever
They also said in a couple months they will remove the rest of the rods so hoping for that for a full recovery

Will keep you all updated

Glad to hear you're recovering Evo.  I guess LL will likely be a roller coaster for most and I will have to prepare for that!
I know you're from Canada so I would like to ask, how are you getting X-Rays done? I would like to lengthen part of it in Canada after my procedure but I'm not so sure how to obtain X-rays as it's been difficult to even obtain X-rays for my consultation as it was not prescribed by a Canadian Doctor even when I wanted to pay for it.

On top of that, would the Canada healthcare cover rod removal? Lol I know it's cosmetic, but is there a way?

Hey ya for me they are removing the rods because I had an infection so now that I got my foot in the door with the canadian medical system they said they will remove the rods for me if its causing pain, which honestly i dont think you ever feel normal till rods come out

Update
When i first started this LL journey, my theory was that when I get taller i’ll get hotter women, have to try less etc when it comes to girls
Obvs not the only reason I did it but in that regard it was a theory

I can now say with certainty that yes my theory was correct
Last year when i was 5’7-5’8 I would get girls but honestly the girls i were seeing were okay
A couple were hot but they would   test me soo much

This year the girls I am seeing are all hot as fk
It is a shame but the grass is indeed a lot greener

Im sure if there was a way to be 6’2 & I did it the grass would continue to get even greener but i have reached my genetic limit at this point and i am happy with a solid 5’11

Moving forward I need to learn to run again
I can kinda jog but not fully yet
Also I suck at hiking!! Everytime a girl suggests going for a hike I have to decline it because i turn into an old man when I have to go hiking

Hopefully that’ll come in time

Thank you guys for all your support means a lot

There's a reason he's not going to divulge his sitting height.

I mean 5'4" which is 163 cm to 180 cm that is 5'11" is a difference of 17 cm or 7 inches of solely leg height.

He's completely screwed in terms of proportion just like Apotheosis and now has to wear long shirts forever to hide his freakishly small torso length accompanied with slenderman legs.

Not to mention a grim doleful fate consisting of arthritis in the near foreseeable future awaits him, I mean I hate to burst everyone's bubbles here but no one in their right mind should do what this guy did if they want to have non-crippling future ahead of them.

that was rude Zucc. why dont you do leg length surgery "properly" and show us how its done? I learned so much from myevolution than from you. do you have any research paper to prove arthritis? if you are convinced about it then why are you even here bro?

Lmaooo ded, prob the most ignorant thing ive ever read ngl
No one has ever commented on my proportions
I would actually say my proportions look way better now

When I was 5’5 my torso was like my whole body
If you go to page 1 or 2 u can see my first walking video at 5’5 and I looked like a pengiun cause i was pretty much just torso
Now that my legs are longer I just look more proper

Hope everything is doing fine for you.
You have come a long way, would really appreciate any videos or photos of your final result.

Me at 163 cm would also love to do at least 12 cm with bilateral lengthening and your experience is an inspiration for me to do it.

Wow, I can't believe I never read MyEvo's whole journal before. It almost makes me want to try 6cm on tibs after femurs to hit a legit 183cm/6' lol. My sitting height is okay, but my wingspan is terrible so it's probably not a good idea for me. Hope you're doing well, MyEvo. Let us know when all your rods are out and how you feel then!

Hi MyEvo,

I don't think we've seen your new proportions yet after your full recovery- I'm extremely curious how you look now and would kill for a picture haha

I think it would look pretty good considering your torso was massive in your earlier video of walking a few days after stryde femurs surgery and you looked pretty disproportionate and short legs BEFORE LL, so it must be alot better

Eagerly awaiting the great come back for pics.. though I'm sure you're enjoying life instead of staying on this forum like many vets do

Cheers

@My Evolution: I would advise you not to post pictures of your proportions. The reason is because many of the people on this forum have some level of body dysmorphia and will undoubtably judge you more than any normal person you would see irl. There was a guy would did quad lengthening and posted a bunch of pics in this forum. If you read his diary, you can see him go from happy with the way he looks to slowly internalizing comments from people on the forum, to self-conscious about his arms. I think he ended up borrowing $90K and spending it on cosmetic arm lengthening. If you are happy with the way you look, please spend your time, money, and energy on recovering your physical function.
