HI...your kid is definitely less in weight than expected for a 6 year old. I have a few questions and will suggest few possibilities.
Questions:
1. What was the birth weight and what is the current weight?
2. How is the attaining of developmental milestones?
3. Is the stool oily and floats in the pan?
4. Is there any colour change in the hair or skin?
5. Is there any history of recurrent serious infections?
Regards - Dr. Sumanth
