What is this weird disussion above?
With precice you can‘t weightbear until you are a few months in consildation. The best case is crutches. Most people use walkers and wheelchair (at least in the beginning)
Precice is completely non weight bearing nail. you have to be on wheel chair while using precice.
drs are making fools of patients many patients broken the screws who were walking with precice and end up with complications

The Precice 2.2 nail in my femur is capable of handling 75lbs per leg. But I have two legs, and 2 times 75lbs equals 150lbs -- and that's just for the part above the nail, which is enough to support a non-heavy adult. I was permitted to use a walker, as were most other patients, but you have to "hop" on both legs rather than walking like a normal person or a patient with Stryde nails.
The "you have to be in a wheel chair" thing is simply not true.

This is what I was saying -- I used a walker the ENTIRE time -- but this other dude is insisting I'm a shill.

Ask your boss does precice 2.2 exist? and 3.0 too
there is not known case of nail break most of the time screws breaks . so stop taking about nail can bear this much and that much weight.

I do not work in any field remotely related to medicine, so my boss would have no idea about such things.
But Precice 2.2 does absolutely exist, if you check the interview with Dr. Paley posted recently in one of the Stryde threads, he talks about it. And Precice 3.0 and Stryde are the same thing.

Maybe you should go back to whatever conspirational forum you came from. I'm sure the lizard people who run the world or whatever are going to come looking for you soon!

Sorry but this is bs. You are absolutely misinformed. Even Paley himself said you are using a walker and crutches, in the worst case wheelchair (for longer distances etc.).
If you look at the device specifics you‘d see that the biggest precice nail has 75lbs per nail/leg. Which means if you are below ~150 lbs pounds you can theoretically walk/hop around with having both feet at the ground all time.
Dr Mahboubian said his precice patients are mobile with walkers. The precice 2.2 nail is partially weightbearing.
Sorry but that‘s just the truth when all the Doctors say it. I don‘t know why you make up your own information.
75lb per leg is nothing.
Most men weigh for sure more than that. And we are talking about the biggest nail, not the thinner ones.
So if anyone wants to be sure that he won't bend the nail, of course he should use a wheelchair for most of the lengthening phase and the first months of consolidation.
It's not possible for me to be under 155-160 lbs, so even with the big nail I'm not confident. I know walker is supposed to be used, but I'm really worried about not using the walker properly and bending the nail, so I will possibly use just wheelchair during lenghtening, which in my case is just 2 months. Besides, I will "walk" everyday with the gravity treadmill, which is safe.

Unless you are over 5'7, anything over 150 pounds is going to put you in the overweight category.

150lbs is heavy for short males. I know plenty of guys, average and even tall height who are 150 and under. Honestly unless you are bulking muscles or being very tall becoming lower than 150 lbs shouldn‘t be really a problem.
Plus being obese for this surgery is bad anyways no matter what nail is used.
