I noticed that you chose to remove your son's band. Was this your choice or was this an option given by CT? We have already seen improvement in our son's head, but are having reoccuring red patches. I'd love to hear more about your experience if you have time.Nikkinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234304213046047016.post-67297642107575882092010-06-02T03:15:19.000-04:002010-06-02T03:15:19.000-04:00Nikki, you asked about how my husband and I chose...Nikki, you asked about how my husband and I chose to remove the band... well, he was almost done anyway. His clinician at CT told me that she wasn't sure if she could make another adjustment or not and to remove the band if he got any red marks that didn't fade after an hour. But this was after 8 weeks in his 2nd DOC Band (he wore his 1st for 8 weeks as well) and I think we were just ready for him to be done.<br><br>My son had troublesome red spots at first, but after a few trips to CT for adjustments and one relief at his holding point (he had a posterior band and stronger holding pressure) we were fine. But my overall experience was positive and my son's head looks great.<br><br>If you have any specific questions, I can email you.
