Will LL be easier when you have a low weight?
« on: May 06, 2018, 11:22:24 PM »
Is the LL process different when you're very low weight? Like 117 pounds? Does it have any advantages? (I'm 1,60m, that's still normal weight)

I'll probably do Precise 2 on femurs and TSF on tibias ( first one segment and some time after the other segment)

I found this somewhere here and I wonder if that means that I won't have to be in a wheelchair even if I do bilateral Precise 2 on femurs?

"Weight Bearing Guidelines for the PRECICE-2 (8cm) from Dr. Paley: 20-November-2013
Patients weighing under 68kg (150lbs) can walk full weight bearing using crutches.
Patients weighing 90kg (200lbs) must unweight 22kg (50lbs) with their arms while walking with crutches."

(I for sure want to gain a lot more pounds in the future - that's another topic though)
