Re: Dr. Harbison

[Guest guest]

Hey Cherie.

I'm glad that everything went well with Dr. Harbison. Did you like her? That

is what we need! Someone who KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE DOING! Can I get her

telephone number from you so that I can get Brockton an appt? What is the

armidex for? Is okay with the fact the he will need GHT?

I will feel so much better about Brockton's diagnosis if I get it from someone

that KNOWS about RSS.

Please give me a call. I'd love to hear about your trip and Dr. Harbison!

Glad you are all safe.

Hi,

I don't post very often, but I feel I Owe all of you a huge debt of

gratitude. My son, just had his first visit with Dr.

Harbison. He is seven and a half years old and has been doing great

until recently. At his yearly endo apt. his bone age suddenly

accelerated to 9 1/2 years. Our endo's only response was " See you

next year " Fortunately that little voice inside told me something

was wrong. After voicing concerns on this list, I went back to my

endo with all the awesome info you all provided. He reluctantly

ordered miniaml bloodwork at my insistance and then insisted there

was nothing to be done despite Very elevated DHEA and prolific pubic

hair. This took several months to accomplish and numerous phone

calls. Once again, fortunately I had already scheduled an apt. with

Dr. Harbison do to all of your encouragement. WOW! What a

difference, from this glazed over look any time I asked questions,

to someone that cared and actually had a game plan based on clinical

data. I only regret it took us so long to establish with her! We

have started Armidex and will probably start growth hormones in

three months. is tracking in the 50% in height and weight

for his chronalogical age, but has a 16 cm deficit in Height for his

bone age, something our original endo was oblivious to!

Thank you all for your patience and assistance to those of us that

aren't as active on this list. You have made a huge difference in

my son's life and I lack the words to convey how much this means to

me. I hope to meet many of you at the next MAGIC convention.

Cherie - that is such great news about your visit with Dr. H. It

must be so comforting to know that you have someone with the

expertise that you can trust. I'm so glad you are keeping us

informed of Jonathons progress. You'll have to give us updates on

your experiences with the growth hormone. How is Jonathon doing

otherwise? Did he feel comfortable at his appointment? How is he

doing in school?

Hope to hear from you soon.
