Is Dr Su one of Dr New's team? When doctors work together, isn't it the case that they work along the sae philosophies fro fear of treading on the boss's toes's haf the time. For example Sandra says she e-mailed Dr Su but at the end of the day Dr Su can only advise so much and seems to sound pretty much like Maria New in the way that she treats kids and is condoning the twice a day dosing. I mean personally, it sound to me like if you had an Endo that couldn't calculate and then you took your child to Maria New, accroding to the mistakes she made with Nick's doses, you would jumping from the "Frying Pan" into the fire so to speak? Basically in this thread it would seem that most parents are actually talking about talking ultimate control of where to dose and how much to dose when raising them, and being pro-active as a separate issue from what an Endo would "normally" do and doing this freely irregardless of the Endo's views. I've so far heard four stories about Maria New. Two is involving miscalculation of dose, one of dosing regime and it seems to me somewhere she isn't listening to paitents parents. In my estimation when I first came to all this I had the impression that she was such an expert that she was able to not only prove things scientifically, but that she was able to treat CAH successfully. I see flaws in most experts way of treating CAH at present that really frutrates the heck out of me. Even Hindmarsh and Brooke according to kathy (thought they have come up with this beaut of a dosing regime) seem to approve of twice daily dosing. I think I am beginning to doubt that I will ever meet one that can actually answer questions "honestly" and do things that are truly for the well being of my child. The best Doctors in my estimations are the ones that can admit their mistakes and change what they are doing for the better. Not those that cover their a##'# or bluff their way through your questions. If the treatment of CAH is such a variable thing (and that in itself is acceptable legally) then why do they a.) feel the need to cover their butt's in the first place and b.) all feel it is ok to give parents different answers to the same questions "without" it confusing the #@!* out of parents! If I go quiet, its cos we have a works Christmas do tonight and I am going to get drunk and drown my sorrows---LOL! I NEED IT with all this!
