Dear Stephanie, It is not the end of the world really. I am a 30 yo. woman with Cah. I have 21 Hydroxolase and am salt-wasting. I was diagnosed at 5 yo. Please email me for more information as tonight I do not have time for a longer reply. But there is hope and life does continue. I, and other women with Cah older than me, know this from experience.
