I'm 18 and have CAH
3/31/02 5:28 PM

Hi, I was born with CAH and now am 18.  I just visited my GP and he ran a blood test and discovered that my blood sugar level is in the diabetic range. My endocrinologist has either never had this tested in all of the blood work I have had done, or this is new. My GP said that hydrocortisone or dexamethasone can cause the blood sugar level to be high so I may not be diabetic.  I was wondering if anybody has info concerning blood sugar levels and dex or hydrocortisone?

PS: I'm looking for someone who has grown up with this condition as I have a few questions to ask. Preferably a female.
