[QUOTE="Shaleah, post: 551522, member: 15215"] He has been doing physical therapy for about six months. It has taken nine months and five different doctors to daignose it. We just got a diagnosis this past Thursday. The dr. that we saw on Thursday said he would like to do surgery but he wants to talk it over with his collegues. He is suppose to call us later this week to let us know what they decide. I have never heard of a cpm machine. The first doctor we saw said my son had a bone bruise and put him on crutches for eight weeks. When he came off of crutches he could hardly walk and his hip was so stiff. We have made a lot of progress but he still can not walk correctly. His attitude is wonderful though and I am so greatful for that. I would love to know more about your experience with this. What doctor did you go to? How long did it take for them to diagnose it? How long did it take her to heal. Is she still doing therapy. It breaks my heart to know that other kids have experienced this also. Thank you so much for being willing to talk about it. There is little information about it. I emailed Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. I hope to hear back from them soon. I want to know what all our options are before we choose surgery and with it being so rare I want to know what every doctor with experience has to offer us before we decide. [/QUOTE]
