<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear listers -- Thanks to all who posted me about my question concerning growth hormones therapy for our 3 year old celiac. Seven people responded. One said his son was successfully undergoing the treatment with no side affects. The other answers varied from "please tell us what we learn," to "wait" and "don't fool with mother nature." We have decided to start with having a bone age xray done and to have our son's thyroid tested. Depending on the answers to those tests, we may go ahead and test for growth hormone deficiency. From there I'm not sure what we will do yet. Maybe a growth spurt will make a decision about daily injections unnecessary. Esme in Maryland
