[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her weight is obviously problematic but what does her medical team say about her overall health? Are all of her vitals stable? Are her electrolytes and bloodwork all stable? Has she experienced any signs of malnourishment? Is there any area of concern other than her weight?[/quote] I echo this PP. Is there anything else actually wrong? As a kid I was always very small and skinny, always a concern to relatives, but thank goodness didn’t pressure me too much. Same with my sister. Today as adults we are petite but completely normal and don’t really stand out physically. It only changed after our 20’s, until then we always looked at least 5 years younger than what we actually were. Listen to her doctors and educate yourself on how to read blood work. Ask questions. Do not derail with a food tube - that’s extreme.[/quote]
