*Also for everyone asking about Daniel his MRI was abnormal on his hip they found some kind of disease in his hip(not sure what)  their was lots of edema around the bone (swollen tissue)they said that is usually the underline of something else. Hes going to go to a pediatric orthopedic surgeon we were having trouble finding one here theirs not many and their booked out so far but he has an appointment on the 28th and will find out more if he need surgery or what ,thanks for all your concerns and prayers ill keep you posted.


Also I realized I never posted an update on Brooklyn with her episode on St Patrick's day...they did test's and it was not seizure she had that day ,they think she got so worked up when she got hurt she couldn't catch her breath and made her self stop breathing they said they have seen kids do stuff like that but just  not to that point so we are happy it wont be an on going thing through her life but also are prepared with CPR and stuff in case it happens again,and if it does happen again they will do more tessting but for now they said she should be fine.. scary stuff!

















Cheers

Daniels Dr appointment

Thanks everyone for your concerns, Daniels appointment  went really  good , the orthographic surgeon  was able to tell us  right away what was going on he said he is pretty sure Daniel has a disease called Iliopsoas Tenosynouitis It sounds scary  even just the word( disease )but their a million things called disease  anything abnormal pretty much ...we always think the worst =)  and its not that scary it just means Daniel has a discrepancy in length in his legsis more then  1/2 inches Left longer so its causing  hip impingement in his hip .So we got a  specialty shoe insert that he can use for one of the legs that will make it more even not causing  trauma to the hip,he will wear that with his shoes all the time, as an adult after hes done growing their are surgery's he can do but it wont go away so he just has to wear the insert till then ,if he didn't take care or it by wearing the insert he could irritate the hip and it could turn into something else. We are very happy  wearing a shoe insert is a small thing to do compared to what we thought he would have to do,or what was going on  hes still in a lot of pain the Dr said it will take a little bit of time  to get his hip back to normal  hes going to also be doing physical therapy and continuing to see his  orthopedic surgeon, thanks again for prayers and all your love and concern we have a really wonderful group of family and friends! So we are going to see how hes doing at the end of July to determine our trip to California he should be good but its a long time for him to be sitting in the car so we want to make sure hes feeling a lot better not in pain.Sorry It took me so long to post his I know I said right after his Drs appointment I would give an update but his   Dr. appointment was an hour and half away and we had to run around doing blood test and getting the shoe insert then  met my parents for dinner for my moms B day we were busy busy , we were very relived  and had to celebrate lol

here is the definitions  to the name  of it thought it would help

Il`i`o`pso´as
n. 1. (Anat.) The great flexor muscle of the hip joint, divisible into two parts, the iliac and great psoas, - often regarded as distinct muscles.

and
Definition of

Tenosynovitis is an inflammation of the tenosynovium, a sheath that covers tendons. Tendons are the cords that connect bones to muscles in the body. Tenosynovitis can occur in any tendon with a synovial sheath. However, it most often occurs in the hand, wrist, or foot. Usually this condition can easily be treated; contact your doctor if you think you may have tenosynovitis.

Tenosynovitis


Causes
Most cases of tenosynovitis are caused by one of the following:

Injury
Infection
Strain
Repetitive motions
Computer operation
Assembly line work
Cash register operation
Sports that involve repetitive actions
Sewing
Playing musical instruments
Risk Factors
If you perform repetitive actions with your hand, wrist, or foot for work or play, you may be at an increased risk of developing tenosynovitis. Diseases such as gout and rheumatoid arthritis can contribute to the swelling of tendon sheaths.

The infections that cause some cases of tenosynovitis occur more often in people with the following conditions:

Diabetes
IV drug abuse
Compromised immune systems
Symptoms
If you experience any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to tenosynovitis. These symptoms may be caused by other conditions. If you experience any one of them, see your physician. Symptoms of tenosynovitis include:

Joint pain
Joint stiffness
Joint swelling
Difficulty moving a joint
Finger sticking in a bent position ( trigger finger )
Pain and stiffness in the wrist on the thumb side ( de Quervain’s tenosynovitis )
Diagnosis
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam. The physical exam may include:

Asking you to move the affected joint
Feeling the joint and along the involved tendon
A blood test may also be performed to look for signs of bacterial infection or other conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. For certain types of tenosynovitis, your doctor may refer you to a hand specialist.

Treatment
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. The goals of treatment for tenosynovitis are to reduce swelling and pain and to allow the tendon to move freely through the tendon sheath. Treatment options include the following:

Rest
Stopping movement in the joint, sometimes with the help of a brace or splint, is often the best treatment for tenosynovitis. Rest may be combined with stretching and strengthening exercises for the muscles attached to the tendon.

Medications
Several medications are used to treat tenosynovitis. These include:

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to help reduce inflammation and pain:
Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)
Naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn)
Corticosteroids, given as an injection into the tenosynovium, a thin tissue that covers the tendons
Antibiotics, if your doctor finds that your tenosynovitis was caused by an infection
For severe cases of tenosynovitis, surgery may be used to release the tendon and allow it to move freely within its sheath.

Prevention
The most important action you can take to prevent tenosynovitis is to avoid overuse of your tendons. If you have a job or hobby that involves repetitive motions of the hand, wrist, or foot, you can take the following steps:

Adjust your workspace to minimize the strain on your joints
Alternate activities when possible
Take breaks throughout the day
Exercise regularly
