Stryde update: " ....right after surgery you can start weight bearing....."

A couple questions for those who did LL with precise 2/Generic IM nail... Can you see yourself walking unaided 3 weeks after your surgery? What was your mobility after 3 weeks? Would this really mean a huge difference?

Thanks to Stadiometer, Esq for the original post

Thank you short2tall. A friend of mine had a nose/eye-job done a few years ago and I remember he was bedridden for a week. That's why I couldn't imagine, with or without weight-bearing, there's a lot of "walking" to be done the first week

@FormerKidd.. thanks, that's what I figured will happen the first weeks

@Penguinn: thanks, I was referring to stryde when talking about weight-bearing. But you proof my point. If stryde is fully weight-bearing from day 1(or after 3 weeks), but the first weeks(or even months) you can hardly move...what IS the added value of weight-bearing?

@penguin .. thanks, very enlightening timeline, but almost 2 years(sept) and you are still at 95%? How come a member here(paley patient) is already jogging, bench pressing, traveling, dancing, dating... Nevermind.. I don't believe a word he is writing anyway

@body builder .. thanks, hope the revolution is true.. what about that synoste from Finland..also full weight bearing promise
