Hi Bonnie. Since you are the only one who is truly looking out for the health of your daughter, I would get a second opinion. My son had a bone x-ray at one year old. It was not a big deal. He also used to go for 45 minute renal scans, where they would inject him with a dye, and take x-rays of his kidneys emptying out in 15 minute increments. If my one year old could make it through that, I am sure that your daughter can tolerate a bone x-ray just fine. We know that growth is a major issue concerning our children, and it shocks me how many endos seem to have such a laid back attitude. Good Luck.Nicole
