Guest guest Posted July 10, 2002 Report Share Posted July 10, 2002 Hi.. had his dr appt today with the specialist. His head didn't get any worse..but it didn't get much better..so of course he is getting the helmet. He said he'll probably in his opinion be in the helmet about 8 weeks..it could be longer...but most likely 8 weeks. I asked him if he thought would get 100% correction..and he said no..probably 75%..b/c 100% would be like it never happened..but he said once his hair grows...it probably won't be noticable. I guess that's really good news. He said that he has no facial assymetry..that his right ear is slightly forward..but very slightly... I just hope i dont' have a huge fight with the insurance company right now...i called the Doc Band place in Paramus...and they are going to get preauthorization from my insurance...and then she will call me back and if they approve it i'll make an appointment. That's who my dr recommends for ..he said if the insurance company won't cover a Doc band...i can go where they send me...but he will keep sending the helmet back if it is not made properly. He said he wants to see right after he gets the helmet...and then he'll see him monthly... I just hope will be ok in the helmet..and that the insurance will pay..and i guess i wish he had said he would get more than 75% correction...but i guess that's probably a good correction...i don't really know much. Sorry for rambling....lol.. Mom to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
