Susanfnp13 61 Posted March 27, 2015 Has anyone shrunk in height since their surgery? I was 5'6 when I had the surgery 4 months ago and now I'm 5'5! I take Calcium daily! I'm only 44 years old! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonawanabfree 280 Posted March 27, 2015 I have heard of this before. I dont know why this happenes. The only thing i could think of was losing weight in your feet. Its just a theory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susanfnp13 61 Posted March 27, 2015 Well I did have fat feet, but not an inch of fat. Maybe I need a bone scan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MichiganChic 3,262 Posted March 27, 2015 I think I lost about a half inch. I find it hard to believe, but I wonder if it had to do with all the fat forcing joints and vertebrae further apart, and extra padding on bottom of feet? There's also the theory of thinner hair. Or maybe people don't know how to measure either before or after, or both. IDK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elode 8,093 Posted March 28, 2015 It's probably just fat off the bottom of your feet! Lol! I feel taller?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
