I rang the Professor that I need to make an appointment with for colonoscopy - AWAY until the 6th Feb.
I rang Dr Matt at Royal Childrens re: Small Man - he wants him to continue with the Xenical, but basically try harder with his diet.
He also wants him to have some therapy re: his food phobias (my suggestion) - I can't see how his current diet will be good in the long term and would like to widen the scope of foods he can eat.
I need to go and see Dr D the paed here to a. get a prescription repeat b. work out a suitable therapy place for him to go.
I rang his surgery - AWAY until the 16th Feb.
I just wonder whether getting the lap band done, him losing weight and getting to a more 'normal' size - THEN doing the therapy for the food issues wouldn't be a better idea.
In March it will be 3 years since he first caught glandular fever, and the whole thing started.
I just don't know how receptive he's going to be to further stuffing around.
I did suggest to him that we go down and have a look at a gym that has opened recently, I think it would be preferable to physio - his fatigue is so random and unpredictable being stuck with appointments just isn't always the best option.
He seemed o.k. with that.
This year would be ideal for the lap band - as he will be at home schooling via distance ed again for the whole year.
I would really like him to be able to attend grade ten at the local high school next year - at this rate there will be no change......
*sigh**sigh**sigh*
It all seems a bit hard today I must admit.

My dear and lovely Gina. I can only send hugs and more hugs your way. And a prayer that answers are found for you and Small Man.
I hope it doesn't take long for both of you to get what you need.
How is the xenical going for him?
Thinking of you

Lou ~ hugs back to you my friend, thank you xx
Tania ~ the Xenical isn't working too well, a combination of reasons all made more difficult by his food issues and limited choices because of it....*sigh*. Thank you, nice to hear from you.
