again I have a daughter who is 11... I wish i would have stumbled upon this site a long time ago.... i have to say you ALL are very informative.....i am sitting here reading so many of these messages and saying wow... i thought that or said that....anyways... i have a question (actually a lot of questions but i WILL discuss a lot of them with my daughters doctors, don't worry i will not flood the site with too many questions :-}) ok my question is.... what distinguishes a mild CAH from a severe case? thanks again
