Looks like p2.2 production is delayed due to license registration problems, or something.
There's no info on when they'll be back online.
As such, I'm considering going with the new fitbone (Birkholtz). I know we've heard some problems about it before-- I'd love to hear more details if you've got them.
Thank you!
Update: Birkholtz only doing fitbone 1.0 not fitbone 2.0
Alright so, here's my options:
1) Fitbone1.0 11/12 mm (12mm but tapers down to 11mm)
2) P2.2 10.7 (supply issue preventing us from getting next size up)
I'm sick of waiting, I have quasi work approval already (approval by mouth, just need official docs stamped).
After chatting with Victor, I'm pulling the trigger for Fitbone.
P2.2 IS more battle tested, BUT I'll have significantly more wiggle room when it comes to weight bearing.
I understand fitbone1.0 is not weight bearing, but the less anxiety when it comes to everyday things w.r.t bending or breaking nail makes the extra risk worth it to me.
Total cost all inclusive for lengthening (minus removal and flights) is $70k. Big caveat is his timeline is very different than other surgeons. In 3 months, he's willing to take you to 6.5cm or so. If you want full 8cm, you have to commit to 4 months, which will cost I think $80k all inclusive?
