For me going throgh it the most painful thing is lying on bed most of the time, and time passing by slowly.
Add to that the difficulty for hygiene, however some doctors will tell you that pain is no problem
cos they say they can use morphia and almost totally make the pain gone.
I found this doctor was lying, he said "pain depends on the person, some will feel little pain some more, but
don't worry about it cos painkiillers will take care of it"
This is nonsense cos I have not seen a patient who said they got their bones broken in half
and feel very little pain. This is a trick that doctors use to get you to do LL. And I'm talking about
Dr. Yasser Elbatrawy, who has been telling me pain is not a problem at all whatsoever.
I have been in touch with a patient who lives close and he said for 4 days he would hardly ever
get up cos the pain was horrible and another patient was talking on the phone crying cos the pain.
There was another man who was 5'4 1/2" who now is 5'9" after a few surgeries and said
"go for it, proportion will not matter" and telling me to start with 4 inches on the femur with Dr. Betz.
After that, I contacted another doctor saying to do 6cm + 6cm will not give disproportion.
I don't know how difficult LL is exactly except half-hell and I'm trying to find out if it is as difficult
as going through Army boot camp training for 7 months getting 5-6 hours of sleep for 7 months
and also going through half-hell exercises, a lot of running, and going through screams and yelling from
Drill sergeants. The army training was the single most difficult thing I accomplished
and I would not do it again.
If LL is worse than harsh military training for 7 months, is not worth it. It's like saying I will be 6 inches taller
but I have to trade off my 2 arms and be very obese. I would not do it if I was to become 6'3" or whatever
"perfect height" they call it, and you have u trade off 2 arms and be morbidly obese weighing at least 300 pounds.
now some of u might want it, cos u 'll be 6'3" without any arms be weighing 300+ pounds.
So you have started your LL now?
