Some Results

Well, not everything is back yet but Shelbie's vitamin levels are back and they are low.  Her vitamin D specifically is low.  Low vitamin levels is one of the hallmark features of SDS so these results are interesting.  It is also intriguing to know that Vitamin D does more than just strengthen your bones.  It also helps control your weight, something Shelbie has been struggling with for awhile now.  She tries so hard to watch what she eats and exercise when she can.  Maybe starting a vit D therapy will help boost her efforts.  Low Vitamin D can also cause muscle pain and bone pain, something all the kids struggle with!  It's too bad they have to take more pills but hopefully it will make a difference in so many ways.
