In addition to picking up William's inserts, we also saw an orthopedic specialist. The day was lots of back and forth for me, as the twins had speech, then we had to go back to pick up William, then back past speech to go up to the clinic.
Their waiting room was designed for adults, but mercifully had a children's area. It was not enough to keep their attention through the entire wait though, we had a trip to the restroom and water fountain* in there too.
The orthopedic doctor was unfamiliar with hypophosphatasia, but took some x-rays of his leg. he saw some new bone growth, which normally happens when there is a fracture or break, but could just be the Strensiq in action.
He sent the films to their endocrinologist to view, so after we see her in April, we will return to him for a follow up...for something? He didn't see anything worrisome, and surgery is not in the short term plans. = )
At least the snow should be gone by the next time we go up, in May, right?
later days
P.S. I seem to always be put in charge of the jackets when we are at appointments. I'm not sure about the big girls' coats, but all three of the little one's jackets will zip together! It makes them much more manageable to carry around.
*The details are so easy to lose, and I really want to be able to read this and remember how it was.
