Yes, this is probably a good idea. It just sucks that I was really planning to have the surgery during the pandemic (so before June, July). After the pandemic it will be harder since I will be working.

Have you asked Giotikas if he still offers stryde or if he was asked to send the nails back?

Lol I texted his secretary and she said this:

"Hello,
Do not worry, we do not anticipate any problems with the supply in July in Greece"

I don't understand anything, they seem like they are not worried at all about the supply.

I asked for further information and they said this.

"We constantly have stock for the next 2-3 months. Our current stock does not cover July. Based on our information, we confidently anticipate the issue will have been resolved by May 2021.

Kind regards
Anta"

Why not just do precise 2? I mean stryde is way more convenient but might as well

I think the document says that ALL Precice instruments are under audit. In case I'm wrong... Well, I would wait a few months for Stryde, but if was not possible Stryde this year, I would do Precise in July, yeah

Isn't that a bit of a problem though. I would expect a doctor who is responsible to at least stop doing stryde surgeries as long as the stryde nail is being reexamined. I don't know, that pdf document was even saying about carcinogenic.

The main focus of the document is the bony thing. Giotikas told me about it in our appointment and said that it has no bad effects, the problems is that they don't know the reason and they have to figure it out just in case. The medicine field is like that, they must be careful. So there are not really huge concerns about Stryde being dangerous or anything like that. The issue is that something is happening that they can't explain, and it must be figured out just in case it could cause issues.

Hey guys,

So I have my surgery booked for March 10th and have been in contact with Dr G’s office today. My surgery is still going ahead as my nails are already in Athens, I just need to do another consult with Dr G for informed consent purposes. I was really worried myself but am a bit more relieved now. Not a good situation at all.
