Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 MAGIC's growth hormone deficient division might be able to help you with a step by step discussion of this, if no one answers you here. You can call MAGIC at 800-3MAGIC3 and ask to be put in touch with Gayle. > Hi everyone! > > we have to take christopher back to chop for an Arginine stimulation > test and a Clonidine stimulation test on oct.24th. has anyone had > these done before and what does it entail. they said it will take > most of the morning to do and i was wondering how the kids handled > it.christopher is so hard to keep still i don't know how he'll do.if > anyone has any info please share.thanks. > > jodie > (nicholas-5 non-rss, christopher-2 1/2 rss, johnathon-3months non- rss) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 I didn't think the test was necessary anymore since the FDA approved GH for use on SGA without a GH deficiency. We avoided the test altogether because of this.
