John Hopkins Hospital has an fabulous description of CAH with details and description and a "commoners" language.  I think the site is www.johnhopkins.net....I have a copy of it if you don't find it!  Miss diagonosis is way more present than ANYBODY wants to believe.  Doctors are human beings......like everybody else and should not be regarded as ALL KNOWING etc... people need to take responsibility for their own knowledge / decisions.   It is not fair for ANYBODY if docs are regarded as any different the HUMAN.  Each has a PROFESSIONAL but limited scope on medicine.  I once asked a doc friend of mine - what was the most influential thing you learned in Medical school. He answered instantly "how little medicine (the medical field)knows and they admit it".  PLEASE do not twist this around into any sort of KNOCKING the medical professionals.  Not in any hint!!  What is being said is that they have some knowledge and skills that gets used to help people....no magic wond!!!

Informing the public EVEN people in the field is a great project....

Go Get'em
