While I'm enjoying law school, it's a highly competitive and very demanding environment, and I've had to struggle more to keep the weight on since I started classes in June. It's ok, though, because that means I get lots of tasty protein shakes . > > ~Hillary > 23, RSS > > > > > --------------------------------- > Yahoo! Autos. Looking for a sweet ride?

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 HI JESSICA, we saw a endo dr last week who just had a chat with us re GHT in the future,Lily is 16 months old now.he didnt do anything or suggest anything that needs doing in the meantime. She is ok at the moment but not all the time.she had a hypo the other morning which we sorted out at home, so we are worried about that more now. We are waiting for an appointment with Dr Stanhope at Great Ormand Street Hospital in London, he is the specialist in RSS apparently. so he may be able to help us more.
