My wife and I have three sons, aged 12, 10, and 5, all who have the 21-hydroxylase deficient form of CAH. We have had wonderful pediatric endocrinologists in Seattle and Dayton, but what we most desire are case studies, personal stories of parents and patients who have dealt with growing up with CAH. We want to know about emotional ups-and-downs due to the Cortef, what should we fear about severe physical injuries and resultant adrenal crises, what about sterility, etc. Can anyone share some personal experiences with us? We're only too happy to discuss what we've been through thus far; maybe we're lucky (aside from the chances of all three boys having the condition), because --- even though the 12 year-old was recently struck by a car --- we've had relatively few emergencies... We can count on taking them to the ER about once a year because of fevers and/or vomiting, but that's been about it.
