Giotikas precise 2
« on: January 20, 2022, 08:56:52 AM »
Hi guys ! I’m absorbing info on this forum for a while and I have a few questions I’d like to ask that i don’t understand/ not sure .
First of all - what’s the difference in the consolidation phase between precise 2 and the stryde nail?
If I’m doing the tsf frames ll 5 cm would I be very scarred ? How much time do I need to stay in frames ?
When can I walk normally after doing precise 2 ? Will I be crippled for the all lengthening phase or the consolidation phase I’ll be crippled too?
Average living cost in Athens is not clear , I pay for ps ? Medicines ? I’m budgeting but I don’t want to get  ty result so I want to take into consideration what I need to budget for so I won’t be facing possible money problems in another country..
Thanks for all the answers guys !!

I am in my planning stage as well but I kind of have decided to go with G-nails over precice , Dr G said that both are quality nails but you'd need to expect 25% extra in pain levels in G-nails but you have the advantage of early mobilization which I am wiling to consider G-nails for.

I asked him about precice and he said that wheelchair would be needed for like 5 months (more or less) depend on your goal of lengthening of course and walker only inside house (going to kitchen, toliet, etc.) , you cant apply your weight on the nails so overall if my understanding is correct less weight bearing delayed consolidation or formation quality.

as for the frames, I guess you can weight bear on them but definitely you can't take them out until you finish the consolidation phase so they would need to stay for long time before you can take them out..
budget in Athens : Dr G package is now considering the nursing assistance (only if you pick their affiliated hotels) so you will end up paying for accommodation, transportation and food.

F**k I can’t believe that with the precice I would be crippled for 5 months !
How long is it with the stryde then? Is the stryde really worth it ?
