    Thanks. We actually live remote and saw a visiting public paed. She sends a letter to the physio who then calls us... but we've not heard anything yet so will follow up this week. The physio is not a specialist and is here 2 part days a week. I think that we will try go back to perth see a private doc and find osteo in one visit as it costs us at least $500 per person to get there and back plus accom.

    Thanks for making me feel like I'm not being OTT. Will call docs tomorrow.

    As you are living remotely, when you find an osteo I'd see if you can actually speak with him or her on the phone before you travel down, rather than just making the appointment. It sounds like you might be in for a couple of trips down to Perth and you'd want to maximise your time there...you might be able to get two treatments done in the one visit, for example.

    Good luck!

    Can I be nosy and ask whereabouts in WA you are??

    Have u see the phsysio yet? I know your paed said twelve months but most paed. Physios reckon it doesn't help after nine months - if you do need to go the route of a helmet it should be by then. How was your physio appt?
