GI Clinic

Justin had a follow up appointment with GI today which in my opinion was really a waste of time. We met with the nurse practitioner who seemed like she knew nothing about Justin's history and didn't provide any new information. I already knew the results from the UGI series but I had to ask about his blood results from the last appointment. Since I hadn't heard anything I assumed that there was nothing unusual and she was able to confirm that his labs were normal.

He weighs 15.2 lbs and is 24 1/4 inches long. On paper he seems to be shrinking, lol, but I realized it's because everyone measures the length differently. And initially I was concerned about the weight, but considering he had surgery a few weeks ago and wasn't eating well the weight loss seems reasonable. Going forward they'd like to see him gain 1 lb per month so that's what we're aiming for.
