Guest guest Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I finally gave in and called Dr Ponseti's office today and made an appointment for Ian. I was going to go to St. Louis and then realized that Iowa City was about the same distance from my house. We were able to get an appointment for the morning of June 10th. Ian's will be 18 months next week and his foot keeps getting more bean shaped. We saw our doctor Thursday and he didn't seem a bit concerned. He just prescribed more physical therapy and told me it needs to be stretched. He then got mad at me for questioning things he was saying. Obviously the all knowing doctor didn't like that. I just want his foot to be right and it doesn't seem that way. I'm going with my gut instinct and figure it can't hurt to get another opinion and I'll feel MUCH better after Dr. Ponseti looks at it. I tired to post a picture of Ian's foot on the pictures group but it didn't go through. I must be doing something wrong. Anyways... that's our little update and I'll be sure to let you know what Dr. P says. Anne & Ian 12/2/03 left cf - FAB 14/7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
