Child's weight loss

Robertaf1
9 years ago

My daughter is 9 1/2 and she has strep for the 2nd time in a month. Also, at her last Dr. visit, I noticed that she had lost 9 pounds in 6 weeks...that is 12% of her body weight. Her Dr. Said to let her eat whatever she wants and the more high calorie the better. She is going back on the 22nd to be weighed again. Any suggestions? She doesn't have anorexia and she doesn't seem super thirsty or have to urinate a lot, so I'm not worried about diabetes. She is very picky and is often not hungry. Also, she has very mild Tourette syndrome. Any advise would be great, thanks.
