University Research Hospital

I just took the file from Local Hospital and Local Research Hospital to University Research Hospital and met with a pediatrician/nephrologist. He said that it's strange that her electrolytes have bounced back quickly. He said the hypokalemia suggested B's, but the quick bounce back is an indicator against it. We're going to cut her medicine for two weeks and see how she does.

I think it may have been a combination of moving to hard food, bad teething, and sharing with her brother. I still can't figure this one out, but the doctor today said that her early growth was very normal and her bounce back in the last month has been very healthy. Anyway, some good news here. Barb may be right that it was eating related. We were tricked a little because she never really stopped eating, she just ate less and without much energy. If she's back to normal, I think we'll be okay with not knowing what it came from.
