[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 187131, member: 3704"] Kjs, I agree with LTS. I found myself wondering when you mentioned difficult child's size. I'm sure the ER doctor did lots of blood work. Certain elevated values can point to these kinds of glandular problems. That's how my pituitary tumor was found - the elevated levels in my blood and the MRI. Of course, these issues may not be connected - some people have later growth spurts, and it's a completely normal thing. In my case I had too much growth hormone due to the tumor, and I started growing some more in my 30's. My ring size, shoe size, and hat size went up several sizes. I'm a little taller as well.... kind of scary, isn't it? I miss being able to find lots of shoe styles. I only mention this, because it's an unusual medical condition and it's not the first thing a doctor would consider. [/QUOTE]
