I’ve had necessary surgery a couple of times, one minor procedure and one somewhat more major (unusually complicated appendectomy). I find even minor procedures disgusting, painful, and generally unpleasant. I can’t understand desiring major surgery without something resembling medical necessity. I get it if, for example, you have one leg that’s 15cm shorter than the other; you will probably be able to walk better if you get the short leg stretched. But just to be taller when you’re otherwise fully functional? There is no universe in which that feels worth it to me, and I am a pretty short man (a little over 5’8”/173cm).

And while it’s true that the procedure is usually safe enough these days, there are always going to be risks when one gets cut open, including of catastrophic failures I know not one but two old people who had joints replaced, one hip and one knee, and experienced awful complications. Months of increasing pain and no improvement to mobility, eventually having to get the whole thing done again. One of the two is fine now (after about two years), but the poor old guy who had to have his failed knee replacement repeated is still hurting and pissed about it.

These kinds of risks are obviously a lot lower for young and healthy patients, but they’re never nonexistent, and this kind of procedure is much, much slower and more invasive than slotting in a new hip joint. Oh, and it must be really expensive.

I am grateful that I have never suffered for not being tall.
