Hi, I am at the end of my tether and need some advice as to where to go next.
My son can crawl and will cruise round the furniture and has just started to "walk" robot like holding both my hands, but his feet are almost at 45 degrees and his ankles are right over.
My son is now 21 months old and a month ago he was diagnosed with hypermobility and excessive aversion of the ankle joints by a piediatric consultant (I had to push and push and push for this appointment, cos I new something was wrong). He referred him for physiotherapy which we have had the first appointment today she said to tickle the inside of his foot to get him to move his foot inwards and that was it!!!!!!! Said she wanted to see him again in 2 months, and nobody would do anything else until he was 2 years old. I thought she would give him some specail boots or something.
I am angry and very, very, very frustrated. What do we do now??? He is getting heavy and one way or another I have been carrying him for over 2 1/2 years!!!
We are thinking of going to a private peidiatrician but dont know where to start with that, I just want to help him
Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions.
