I was wondering after reading some of the post what your endo has tested your kid for? I know a lot have been tested for celiac and thyroid problems...after 10 months my daughter has not been tested for anything. Never had any blood taken besides a finger poke.

Our dr does a yearly thyroid test, and a celiac test for the 1st few years,then cuts it back to every 2 yrs,

Jaden's Endo tested for Celiac and thyroid issues-but ONLY because he was having symptoms. I know alot of Endos test for these yearly anyway-but Jaden's doc does NOT--only when they believe necessary. He hasn't been tested for anything else-we are only about 4 months in.

We just had an endo visit and he said next time at our 1st year visit he will do a lot more testing for thryoid, celiac, etc. I think I remember at dx they said they would test once a year unless there were symptoms.

We've had celiac testing, thyroid testing, and a bone age x-ray due to short stature. We've also had growth hormone testing.
