Default DOC question???

this is not a weight loss question, but am just curious...my son seems to have worse growing pains then my daughter had. when he was 3 years old he had Guillian Barre...could this be part of the reason?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I'm not a pediatrician, so I can't say for sure, but I don't think the Guillan-Barre has any effect on it. I remember vaguely that we were taught in med school that for some reason, the boys seem to have it worse than girls. Given the effect of female hormones, and that they kinda protect the female body because she needs to nutur babies in the future, that might have something to do with it--though this is just a thought right off the top of my head.

thanks so much, was just curious, since with the Guillian barre it affected all his nerves in his body and he couldnt walk for 3 weeks, i will also see what his doc has to say next time he goes...thanks for the response
