Braydens dosage will throw you all off. age- 3 1/2 weight- 36/37 lbs height- 39?? inches Cortef 5mg tab.... 1/2 tab morning 1/4 tab afternoon 1/4 tab evening(was 1/2 tab til today) for total of 5 mg per day! Now this is much lower than normal BECAUSE he is in the NIH study. Brayden has those additional medications that help balance out "stuff" better. Or so the theory goes. He takes testolactone and flutamide in addition to the cortef and florinef. The BIG test will be in November when we go back to NIH. I am VERY interested to see his bone age again. Before we got started on the experimental regimen he jumped 1 year of bone age in 3 months! That was Feb-May of this year. At age 3 his bone age was 4 1/2... 3 months later 5 1/2. We reduced his cortef just yesterday because even at that small dosage, he was oversuppressed (65). All makes you go , Hmmmmmm? Susan
