It is dangerous for anyone to diagnose based on what you have posted on a public message board. If your Doctor is not giving you answers you either have to push for answers OR find another Physician.

I completely agree with what Judy has said. Kudos to her.

Let me also say that, since we are not doctors (I'm the closest thing you will get here) AND we don't know your son's complete health history, it would be very dangerous, and litigious, for us to advise you.

These are questions you should be asking your son's doctor.

You will have to get a second opinion from a different doctor. I'm sorry, but we cannot help you here.

You see, we cannot examine your son, we cannot do the blood work or the lab tests, we do not know the results of the lab tests, we do not have the education that a doctor has.

I truly wish we could help you, but any answer we give is, especially me, out my scope of practice and could risk me losing my license or worse, a multimillion dollar malpractice case.
