We went to the doc. He checked her out and discussed what had happened.
She has gianed 3 pounds in the last 8 months, she has also grown 7 inches!!
With the incident 8 months ago (after the ferris wheel) and this incident, she ended up with a nasty cold both times.
He thinks that when she gets sick, most likely with a virus her balance gets way off. He did have a term for it, but I can't remember it right now. He thinks her large intake of food is just her growing so much and the fact that she is soooooooooo active! He also thinks that her activity level while sick has some to do with the way her body reacts. We are keeping a close on her weight and height for the next few months to make sure she does not loose weight. She really has no other signs of being adiabetic. She is not loosing weight, she does not have constant thirst, she does not urinate frequently. If she has another spell, we will be going back in. But for the time being, we wil lkeep a close eye on her. I think the two are also related to the virus. Had it not been both times, I would not think so, but to get a yucky virus and have similar incidents, I just have to think they are related to the illness.
7 inches, wow, she is a growing machine!!
Thanks for the prayers!

Thank goodness she's just an endless pit that's growing like a weed! That's good news - not about the virus - but about no diabetes or anything major. Sounds like she's gonna be a TALL one =)
