We found out yesterday that Zachary's labs came out mostly normal. His vitamin D levels are minimally low, so he has to start taking 1000 IUs of Vitamin D per day. Thankfully, he's my child who swallows pills very easily.
Since, the tests came out normal, he has to have a longer growth hormone test. Why? Because evidently growth hormone levels tend to fluctuate and there's definitely something going on to stump his growth.
I mentioned to the doctor that his EKG was borderline abnormal and asked if heart defects can be associated with growth problems. She said there absolutely can be a connection. I'm supposed to schedule his 1-3 hr. lab for after he sees the Cardiologist so that he can communicate with the Endocrinologist before we do the labwork.
(Sigh). Having children sure is difficult, a blessing, but...difficult. I am glad we're in an area with really good medical facilities. The Endocrinologist is a professor of Endocrinology at the University of Maryland in Baltimore. The Cardiologist is a Johns Hopkins Cardiologist. I haven't checked out his credentials yet, I guess I'd better go Google. |
