Jodie,

I think that different children react differently to medications.

Perhaps has enough fat on him now so that it won't sting?

We have Oxford, too, and they tried to get Dr. H. to switch Max to

Nutropin instead of Humatrope to save money. Dr. H. said NO because

Max has been on Humatrope for 14+ years and was not about to fool

around with another medication. They listened! I'm sure if he were

younger, she would have made the switch. But from Oxford's point of

view, if Max is using 10 vials a month and each vial is over $300, the

cost is very high for them. Actually, I believe a 3 month shipment

before he was changed to twice a day was worth about $25,000!!!! It's

a good thing he has grown.
