[QUOTE="seriously, post: 443607, member: 11920"] Thank you ladies. My thoughts exactly, minus a few expletives. So he could stand to lose that 21 pounds. That is NOT the point. So we can explain the loss by low calorie intake. That is NOT the point. We cannot explain WHY he won't eat. THAT is the point.... I left a message for his psychiatrist but I can tell you what she will say. No reason his psychiatric medications should be causing this. That's not to say there's not some mood issue or God forbid eating disorder thing going on. But my Momsense is on alert and it's telling me it's not a psychiatric issue, at least not primarily. We see the pediatrician at 3:30 our time, that's 90 minutes from now. We can draw labs tomorrow, assuming they are going to want a fasting draw to check glucose levels. That means results partly tomorrow and partly the next day or longer since the pediatrician gi is asking for a bunch of vitamin and mineral labs in addition to the regular panel. And the LFT's don't get back that fast so Friday is probably the soonest we will have all the main labs back. The CBC will be back within a couple hours though so anything there will be seen ASAP. Not sure how long it takes for the Albumin - that's the one the pediatrician gi seems most interested in right now. Will keep you posted. Hope my Momsense is totally off base this time. [/QUOTE]
