I know where you're coming from about being discouraged. I thinkt

hat if you have to have her out of the band for a day or so, it will

be ok. Jaxson (my little guy) has had several days out of his, for

different reasons, fever, spots, etc. But, after having his CranioCap

since Dec 4, we are seeing a difference in his head - definately the

bossing and even in the back now. We have had it off maybe 6 or 7

nights total since the day he got it and he's still doing ok!!

Definately ask on Monday about it though. When the spots go away on

Jax, his skin looks normal again. Good luck to you and your little

angel!!

I would just keep her out of it until monday. I'm sure they can

shave away a spot or soften it so you won't have any more red spots.

Once they do the skin will return to normal and be fine. Let us know

what happens monday.

Hi ,

It is very, very common to need an adjustment or a few in the

beginning of treatment. Don't be discouraged, an adjustment is

probably all that is needed. It is very important to make sure the

band is off when any red mark lasts longer then an hour. Yes, the

skin does get back to normal after the red mark completely goes away,

it just takes some time. Let us know how you make out on Monday.

Sorry to hear Ellen is having red spot trouble again . It often

takes a couple times to get that perfect fit, but it will be worth

it! Hang in there. And yes, the skin does go back to normal. Let

us know how it goes Monday.
