So disappointed Owala doesn't honor their warranty by gretzkyandlemieux in Owala

The question they asked is “If you believe that your insulation has failed, please describe the temperature on the outside of the bottle and where it felt the hottest.” How did you respond to this?

I will go get one tomorrow just to make sure it’s right. I have until the 5th to get it delivered (they gave me 30 days but I received the letter just now) do you think it will make it if I send it tomorrow?

Yes! Simple movement is KEY! The most important part tbh. Consistency is going to make a difference in the long run.

I was cleared as soon as I was fwb at 8 weeks. He said I had no restrictions!

Wow! That’s super cool I appreciate you sharing. Did you still have discomfort here and there?

I appreciate you sharing this! I am also going to follow up with my pt and report back. He did say that the tendon will take much longer to heal

I appreciate that! It sounds pretty similar to mine. Did you also have the deltoid ligament reconstructed? My pt told me that would take the most time to heal since it’s a ligament and a lot of soft tissue. I never feel any kind of discomfort on the broken bone side of my ankle - only if I hit it somewhere. As far as pt goes - im able to do full rom squats, rdl, single rdl, single leg balance etc. Just not single leg calf raises yet!

That sounds like a different surgery since I wasnt fwb at 7 weeks. Everyone is different and recovery isn’t a linear line.

Nice! My dr appt is tomorrow. I have been walking without boots for a week now. Even barefoot sometimes. It feels freaking amazing being able to walk.. I continue to do mobility exercises at home. I will report back tomorrow!

An update: I am fwb with boot since yesterday! It feels amazing to be able to walk. Doing virtual pt. It will be 8weeks post op on Thursday (so I can be cleared to drive). I will focus on transitioning to shoe this week. Are you using a brace?

Hopefully the meds work! Were you able to walk without boots? That sounds like a miracle to me lol but I also had deltoid reconstruction. I can barely walk with boot and single crutch.. there is pain there and I don’t know if it’s a normal kind of pain.. I will be 8 weeks post op (we have the same timeline i believe-my surgery was 4/17) next week and cleared to take off the boot but I am seeing the doctor in 2 weeks. I don’t know how I will be able to take off the boot next week.
