This makes me mad!! We shouldn't have to argue with our endos about OUR child's treatment!! It is not like you are suggesting some radical new treatment; and since your daughter's levels have been fluctuating so much, I can't see as he has a leg to stand on in his arguement to keep her on the suspension. You have enough to think about with a CAH child, and shouldn't have to worry about "putting your endo on the defensive" (he is a big boy and should be able to handle challenges to his ideas, and opinions that differ from his own!), nor should you have to compile a "case" to defend yourself at your next visit. If he refuses to comply with your wishes, or to at least give you a good reason for his refusal, I would consider changing endos. Good luck and God bless!
