[QUOTE="Josie, post: 367080, member: 1792"] Since he isn't growing as he should, I would look into celiac disease and/or gluten intolerance. Failure to thrive is a symptom of celiac disease. Hopefully, your pediatric endocrinologist is testing him for this already. Even if his test comes back negative, I suggest trying a girlfriend diet to see if anything changes. One of my daughters had stomach problems until she was 8. She had multiple tests for celiac disease which were all negative. Despite that, putting her on a girlfriend (and milk free) diet eliminated her stomach problems. My other daughter didn't have stomach problems but was diagnosis'ed with ODD and depression. Putting her on the girlfriend/CF diet turned her into a typical child. She had been on an a/d and we were considering adding an a/p to stop the violence. Since she has been on that diet, she is now medication-free. [/QUOTE]
