While there is always a risk for a child with CAH to go into adrenal crisis, the case of your daughter (mild) means that she is at a much lower risk. Those most at risk are the children with the salt-wasting form. They can dehydrate more rapidly than a non-salt-waster. Feel free to e-mail me (click on the highlighted name at the end of this message) with any questions, as I, too, have a 5-year-old daughter who is a non-salt-waster. :)Karen
