We got the email today with the results from the MRI and they are NORMAL, which is good! It means there is not a growth or tumor or anything else causing his "short stature".
The next step might be the worst one yet, but luckily it doesn't involve Mason! We (well, the doctor's office!) will submit to insurance for growth hormone for approval and we wait for them to call us. The process does take "a while.... 3-4 weeks". So, we will wait. And wait. And wait.
After the last stim test when we were told we might end up here, Dr. P told us that it'd be nightly in home injections! Not really looking forward to that but from others I've talked to it's similar to an Epi pen and he can do it himself. If not, we have 3 nurses as our next door neighbors!
But, while we wait, Mason tells me he thinks he's growing because he had growing pains today!
