Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Update on our first tip to Iowa City. Dr Ponseti said that Tori does have atypical cf but that they seem flexible which is good. He put her in another set of cast and boy was I surprised, her last set of cast from the previous Dr was no ware near as turned out as what her feet are now. She was ok during the casting but started crying about 3 hours from home and has been crying ever sense. On Wednesday and Thursday she would sleep for an hour or two then wake up and cry for a ½ hour to an hour. There is nothing I could do to get her to stop crying. Is this normal? She is still plenty fussy but seems to be doing a little better today. We go back for a cast change on Monday is she going to be like this again after the next set of cast? She never cried like this for her initial set of castings but her feet weren't turned out near as far. After cast on Monday we will have the Tenotomy on Thursday then after the 3 week cast we will be in the Markell shoes. Is anyone going to be in Iowa City next week? I don't think I can adequately type how hard this has been but I know that you all have been there too. Thanks, Tori 1/30/04 bilateral cf, back in cast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
