Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 It's been a while since I have updated everyone on na...so I thought I should. Where to start..ummm if everyone remembers I am the one who switched docs in Feb for a second opinion after seeing the first doc(Modified Ponseti). We had many problems with her treatment at the first institute so I thought it to be best to get a second opinion. I am now seeing Dr Pirani and he is great. na had to go through 2 more weeks of casts and now she is in the Dennis Browne Boots for the last 2 weeks. She just finally started to get used to the boots and is sleeping the nite with them on. YAY!!As far as treatment goes, her feet look amazing, however there is not much difference as to how her feet looked after each doctor. I am very happy I did switch because na went through too much unnecessary pain. While na had the casts on, she was still pulling herself up on furniture...nothing was stopping her. She is 10 months now and is in the boots for 23 hrs/day for the next couple months...which kinda sucks because she is trying to get around but its hard for her...crawling on the hand is no problem for her...I just think the boots are keeping her from learning to walk now.
