[quote=Anonymous]We treated DS. To my mind, his body was not producing hgh. If his body wasnt producing insulin, would I not want to medicaly intervene? Of course I would get him insulin! Doing the growth shots, imo, was about getting his body to the way it *should* be. For us, it was not treated like something was "wrong" with DS but rather matter of factly like any other medical issue. We get casts on broken arms, we get medicine to treat strep. This was no different. As pp mentioned, there is also more at stake than pure height, the lack of sufficient hgh interacts with many different body systems. [/quote]
