Hello,

I was planning on doing the PMAX end of May but received news the PMAX will be delayed until July.  I start a new job the first week of september, mostly computer work.  I was curious what the thoughts were on waiting for the weight bearing pmax? pros - weight bearing, good dr, much better/easier recovery, dr said likely only need cane by starting job if that. Cons - delay will now eat into my job time and will be on crutches for a while into job.  Do 2.2 - cons- no weight bearing and much longer recovery, will still be on crutches during job.  He also offered fitbone? - not much info on it, seems not weight bearing as well. 

Id welcome any thoughts?

I have consulted with Dr. Assayag in Baltimore, HSS in NY, and Dr. D. All have confirmed that PMAX is delayed at least until July.  There was a delay from the manufacturers.
