Probably a world record case study of CLL. Best recovery and surprising age as well.
Cheers StrydeNailChallenge! You really are an anomaly- I am inclined to say this is the best result on the entire forum, akin to Movie's recovery. Amazing!

Quote from: SPhantom on March 01, 2021, 09:01:51 PMHow long does it take you to jog the 1.5 miles? I am thinking of becoming a police officer a year after I get the surgery, and being able to run 1.5 miles under 16 minutes is one of the physical requirements.
Hello SPhantom,
I am currently in month 7 and can do 3 miles in less than 25 minutes and 1.5 miles in about 12 minutes on grass, without pushing it too much. I believe I can be faster if I have to, especially if I train myself for a few weeks before making the record and also if the track is better than a grassland.
I believe the earliest I could do 1.5 miles under 16 minutes would be in month 4 in early December 2020, but never tried that then. I took it easy on speed, but worked on increasing distance, e.g., walked for over 10 miles per day. My avg. "Walking + Running Distance" so far in 2021 is 6.1 miles per day. After my last appt. with Dr. M. on Jan. 12th (Month 5) and getting his confirmation on full callus consolidation, I increased my speed.
I have a feeling any CLL'er with no serious issues during surgery or post-op should be able to run 1.5 miles under 16 minutes, latest one year after the surgery, but please double check with others to make sure of that. Best wishes on your future endeavors.

Hi Serilium,
Thanks man for the kind words and support.
Dear All,
I've just found out about the recall, cause I did not check the forum and news for a while. It looks troubling. I have sent an email to Dr. Mahboubian about it and will let all know if I hear anything. Meanwhile, I was wondering if anyone has some info on what the recall means for those who have done the stryde nail already and either removed it recently or are close to removal.
Thanks,
SNC
I removed it couple of weeks ago. All Precise Stryde has been recalled by Nuvasive and there are corrosions on the Stryde. Nuvasive is recommending to remove the nail no more than a year. Please let us know when you hear back from your doctor.

When are you allowed to generally remove the nail? I am seeing mixed numbers, some people say after 2 years, some 1, but you said Nuvasive said before 1 year?
It all depends on bone formation.... can remove one year or less if there are lots of bone regenerate and the bones have healed. I took an X-ray and Dr. Paley emailed that I am ready for removal

After removing the nails, have you noticed it's easier to walk and bend your legs?
I am still recovering from the surgery and sore around the hips. I am going to wait until fully recovered from the rod removal surgery before looking for gait improvement, easier to walk and flexibilities. It is way too early to tell if there is any improvement

Congratulations on completing the last step of the CLL process! I hope you see great improvement soon.
