I bought the I Walk 2.0 as soon as I knew just before xmas that I would be having a Talo-Navicular Fusion and would need to be non weight bearing for some while to allow fusion to occur. Having used crutches before and hated the restriction they bring I was hoping this would give me more freedom. I practiced with it prior to my surgery and got used to the feel of it. Peglegs were great as as I set the I-Walk up for the first time I inadvertantly pushed one of the obtrusions up inside. A quick email later and I had the solution and quickly and easily set it up for me. Great Customer Service! Well here I am 3 days post surgery and am home in my bungalow alone for the best part of the day, and I can get around, go to the loo, cook food and take it to the table to eat, carry items around that I need e.g. laptop, elevated support cushion etc without a problem! The I-Walk has given me the ability to look after myself in the main and to be mobile whilst non weight bearing. Although the physio's sent me home with a walker I haven't used it as hopping around is exhausting. I told them I would be using the I-Walk when I got home and when I showed them the pictures they were very impressed and went off to find out more about it. I am thinking that I may when no longer needing it, bequeath it to my hospital physio dept so that hopefully others may benefit from it. My 10 weeks plus non weight bearing now is no longer a problem and although exhausted currently from the surgery, I find using the I-Walk in short bursts right now is what works for me. Once I pass 2 weeks and have a full cast and am no longer having to keep my foot elevated for longish periods, it will truly come into its own with me hopefully being able to go out and water my own garden etc and enjoy the current lovely weather. This is a truly great product and I highly recommend it!!
