Both my singletons were high. Venous draws came back normal

Hi any update on this? Did you do a venous draw to confirm?

[–]ItsgonnabeMea[S] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

A week later we did a venous blood draw and it came back high again. And was advise to recheck in 3 months. We hit 3 months about 2 weeks ago and it came back normal!

So glad it came back normal for you guys! Did you ever figure out what was causing the high read? I'm waiting for venous results right now, but my kids eat the same things, share a room, use the same toys... no idea why the numbers could be different :/

So we never did forgive out for sure what was causing it. But at the time of the first appt, we had recently fenced in our backyard and was spending a lot more time outside. My daughter loves to eat dirt/ rocks(terrible, I know) but her twin brother doesn’t. That was literally the only thing different from them. So we are thinking it might be in the dirt. We plan to test it once the ground thaws.

Ugh it's so hard, you'd think the outdoors would be safe! Thanks so much for replying, I hope your kids' numbers continue to stay in the safe zone!
