Adventures in the GI clinic

Landon had a follow up GI appoinment today, he did really good. It's kind of scarry in there, it's all painted nice, but it's a huge university medical clinic (the only ped. GI around here) and the place use to be a hospital, so the exam rooms are set up like hospital rooms and has that hospital feel to the whole place. Any Who, Landon weighed in at a HUGE 23pounds, is 30 inches tall (he was standing up) and even let the nurse hold him, but not the doctor. We tried to go every other day with his Previcad around thanksgiving and he stopped eating so we went back to everyday, she said he was not ready and she's not sure when he will be. So we got another Rx for it and we have to got back in April, (4months) She gave us these cards that I have to put his poop on (TMI I know) and mail back to her, that is to see if he is loosing any blood through his stool, I haven't ever seen any, but that might explain why his Iron is still low. We also did a CBC, mainly to check his Iron again, they had to get a vain and the dumb girl didn't know what she was doing, we had to go to the clinic lab, and i was holding his one arm, legs and head, and she's going to ask if I can then hold his other arm (the one she's about to stick) out straight, I said umm.. NO and you got one try, if you can't get it then I will have it done at our Peds. office. She got it on the one try she had but Landon's arm is brused really bad. Any way, at least he's gaining weight!
