Scoliosis update.

This was the fist scoliosis appointment that  Travis was able to go to and man am i glad he was there it was kind of scary one! Her curve changed from a 13-19 degree curve in 6 months! The specialist was worried that there may be some thing else causing the curve in her back and ordered an MRI for her. She said they would call in 24-48 hours to schedule it after closer to 60 hours i called and they said that they were still waiting to hear back from the nurses to authorize the sedation, they would call me back asap. Finally an hour later they called and notified me that we were good to go but the main hospital was booked out till Oct. and gave us the option to do it at another location with sooner openings. 

I chose Layton and they were able to get us in the fallowing Monday at 7am. The day before school started. After church we had my dad and Travis give her a blessing then we headed to sleep at Matts house because it was closer to the hospital and Nisha would be able to watch the Other kids since they weren't allowed in the hospital. Enslie was little nervous but also so brave! Once she was asleep they told us that the MRI would take about and hour. That was the longest hour and 20 min. of my life!! But she did so well and was so excited for apple juice and gold fish crackers after. It was kinda funny though while she was still kinda out of it she dropped some of her crackers on her light blue blanket she had and she said " The fishies are in the ocean, go fishies!"

Then came the hard part! Waiting for the results they told us we could have the results as soon as that night but for sure by the end of day the next day. At about 1:30 the next day i became impatient and called they said some one would call shortly. At 4:20 I notice they close at 4:30 call again and get sent to the doctors secretary of course she doesn't answer! Wed. we end up at the pediatrician with Erilyn and ask if they have the results she looks them up and shows me that the results are normal and the notes the tech. left. that her curve isn't bad laying down and they think her pelvic tilt is to blame. Ok now i at least know its normal but I don't know the next steps. So i wait for some one from the ortho office to call me..... Thurs nothing! So Friday I call and I'm on hold for 15 min. they say they will email the doc and she will call me right away. An hour later i finally get a call from dr. Kunkle her self.. "Im so sorry its taken so long to get back to you, the results were normal." "Ok so what do i do now? she says we can brace at night or we can try putting an insert in her shoe on the left side and see if evening out her pelvic tilt helps and i will see you in 6 months. so we ordered her shoe inserts and today is her first day wearing it. hopefully it helps and she wont have to wear a brace.
