4yr old hasn't grown for 6 months

Hiya,
Very very worried from Exeter. My 4 year old son suffers from epilepsy and recently at his routine consultation we realised he hasn't grown a mm since his last visit 6 months ago. Our consultant thinks this is not connected to his epilepsy and is organising a number of tests. I'm beside myself as you can imagine. He has gone from the 75th percentile to the 25th percentile. Anyone else had similar experiences?

My daughter has growth issues, I find their measuring at clinics really rubbish! Depends on who does it , how they hold head etc etc.

Try not to worry.

Good though that paed is doing tests.
