Hi Kathy,

's first year on GH was disappointing as well, as his growth velocity

stayed negative (meaning he still wasn't even growing as well as his peers,

let alone obtaining any catch-up growth) I think it was a combination of

caloric deficiency, and low dosing of GH both contributed to the problem. We

managed to up his caloric intake ( is on continuous g-tube feeds) and

increased his GH (from 6 units nightly to 10 units), and he has now passed

the RSS boys line on the growth charts. YEAH!!! FINALLY!!!

There is always hope!

Hugs for you both!
