Today's Dr H visit

[Guest guest]

hey everyone!!

well today we went into the city to see dr h even though we saw her

at convention because my hubby's co. is changing insurance companies

so we had to get the paper work under way for his gh to be cover by

oxford. well we had a good visit except she said he is starting to

get skinny again and is losing his body fat!!! so she upped his

periactin again (she also did it at convention) and siad we have to

some how get the calories into him!! she also told us that when he

goes swimming (unless the pool is heated) he gets cold very quick

and easily and all that shivering and his body trying to keep its

self warm is burning calories away big time, plus his being on the

go 24/7!! so she suggested a wetsuit for swimming to keep him

warm. we went online together to find one and she found one at this

website that she liked www.outdoor-family.com it is the one with

the front zipper, goes down the legs like shorts and down the arms

some. the smallest size they have would be just a little big(his

height is 38 " , weight 29lbs, chest 19 3/4 " ) so i emailed them

because they say they make custom ones. the price isnt too bad

either. she said it should be in a dark color and that he should

wear an undershirt that is snug underneath it to keep in his body

heat. just thought i would share the site in case anyone else was

interested in getting one (i know someone at convention said that dr

h mentioned it to them for their child but i dont remember who that

was) so we go back in nov. and hopefully his weight will come

up!!! keep your fingers crossed!!!
