HIS MRI;S HAVE BEEN STABLE AND HE IS NORMAL NO DEFICETS.HE S ON GENATROPIN,STEROIDS,THROID,FISH OIL,TESTOSTERONE CREME.HIS GH LEVEL WAS VERY HIGH.THEY CUT OUT ONE OF HIS DAILY SHOTS OF GH. WILL THAT ALSO INCREASE THE BILIRUBIN TO 1.2,?ACTH WENT UP TO 1910.WHEN FIRST DIAGNOSED HE WAS IN THE 3000 S.HIS NORMAL IS IN THE 200=300 RANGE EVEN NORMAL IS UP TO 60.HIS BUN/CREATININE LEVEL IS ELEVATED TO 24 YET HIS BUN AND CREATININE IS NORMAL.HIS MONOCYTES AND MCHC ARE SLIGHTLY ELEVATED(JUST OUT OF RANGE)AS HIS RBC ,HG HCT ARE JUST OUT OF RANGE LOW.
