My experience began with around 20-25mm. Throughout the process, my tibias and feet experienced significant swelling. Despite taking gabapentin, the pain relief was minimal, making it barely bearable. Combining the nerve pain from limb lengthening with three months of constant vomiting made my LL journey quite challenging. My advice to you is to approach it one millimeter at a time, day by day. The transformation in your height will leave you astonished. Although it may feel like there’s no end in sight, remember you’re one-third of the way through. I often tell my friends and family that I’m not sure if any amount of money could make me go through that again.
Having a comfortable leg pillow, especially one for placing between your knees or elevating your legs if you sleep on your back, can be beneficial.
