Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I have seen Lynn a few times. She was the one who helped me get the band for my daughter around 11 months. I have her to thank for a lot. She also sent us to see the surgeon about the other ridge she developed. She's not our regular PT but I value her opinion. Our regular PT was sick with the flu all last week and rebooked our appt twice. We finally go see her tomorrow morning. I am really frustrated as Marissa has redness from the new band because it's too tight. She's been wearing it for 15 days now without an adjustment. The only thing I have been doing is taking off the band for a while to let the redness disappear. In regard to the ridges... I was told by the surgeon that the metopic ridge is normal for some people. But now with the other one developing only on one side, I'm thinking it has more to do with plagio and the band. I think I'm always going to hit a brick wall when it comes to this one and I feel there's nothing I can do about it but hope both ridges go away on their own. Thanks for your support.
