Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Hi Everyone, I don't post much, just kinda lurk around and read. My son Started GH in July. We just had a appointment with his endo on friday and we could tell he has had some catch up growth!!! He is now on the 3% line for weight and just below it for length. I'm so excited that i can't contain it. Also while at the appointment met another boy that was just a couple of months older then him and the same size. This was the first time that either boy had met anyone like them. Needless to say they ended up " Best Friends at first sight " come to find out they live in the same area we do. and took the same flights we did on friday so we had lunch and sat next to eachother on the flight home. The other little boy has a diffrent genetic dissorder then but a lot of the things were the same. Anyway it was a great day all around, and I just had to tell ya'll about it. Well gotta get going.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 That is great news!!! I am so glad that your son also feels so great. Your description of him meeting the other little boy brings back a lot of memories of the MAGIC conventions -- the same thing happens when all these RSS kids suddenly meet other kids who look just like each other! Watch the kids' faces -- it is a lightbulb going off -- like " hey, you look like I do -- wow, I thought I was the only one this short. " On a separate note, is this your first visit back to the endo? Does your endo only see every 6 months? Or is that because you have to fly to see him/her? The reason I ask is that all the studies I have been reading lately are pretty emphatic that checkups every 3 months are critical for RSS/SGA kids, because the dosages have to be adjusted so carefully. Clearly, this is not always possible (we sometimes have to skip going to NY). > Hi Everyone, > > I don't post much, just kinda lurk around and read. My son > Started GH in July.
