Excess weight gain while on Cortef (March 2003) re: To ChrisD, et al

Hi Chris, long time no talk(:>).

I’m glad to hear Jack is doing well.

I was just curious what the age, weight, and height is of your children. 

My son is on the Growth Hormone program at Cornell and he is doing well, but when he was out of good control, he developed a more muscular physique.  Over time, he has kept the muscular build but has become a little "plump" in the buttocks and belly.  He is 8 years old (in May) and just ed the scale at 103 lbs!!!!!

He is relatively active in Karate, Cub Scouts, swimming and enjoys basketball.  We are working on a "healthy choice" diet but he seems to be ravenous all the time.

Anyone else experience this situation?
