Accepted Answer

Other options?: You're 30 and no longer growing, problem won't get worse. A 3/4" heel lift on your shorter leg may resolve most issues. If not, surgery to lengthen the short tibia with external device is possible but results may not be worth the effort to get there. You really need to discuss with orthopedics your current issues with shorter leg and if they will resolve with surgery.

Linden Method: It appears to be a behavioral treatment program using packaged materials.  They focus on issues related to the amygdala, and treat anxiety with a series of dvd's and cd's.  There is a one year money back guarantee, and it has some favorable reviews from users, and costs around $175 for the program.

Accepted Answer

Dialysis: Dialysis should always discussed with the nephrologist in charge of your uncle's kidney condition. The risks and benefits of hemodialysis versus peritoneal dialysis versus no dialysis should be weighed thoroughly. His primary care physician may as well be involved in this discussion as goals of care are to be discussed. While dialysis may prolong life, it significantly reduces quality of life.
