I’m going to give this dosing a try. I told my Endo about it and he actually got angry with me. Dosing at 3am 7am 12 noon and 5:30 pm actually fits into my schedule better anyway. I take 7.5mgs of prednisone. Any suggests on how to break it up? I have an idea to snap the 5mg in half and take one part at 3am and the other part at 7am. Then for the noon and 5:30 dose snap in half a 2.5mg portion. 

I know I’ll never regain any growth but I like the idea of having my body mimic the natural rhythm as intended. I’ve always felt nauseated beyond belief in the morning after taking the pred even with breakfast. I’ve always just tolerated that my whole life so maybe this will make it better. It never made that much sense to me anyway taking that much pred at night. Talk about being restless though or better yet bouncing of the walls with so much energy then finally being so tired in the morning for school.  

I read somewhere that extra amounts of cortisol in the body at the wrong times can cause cushings syndrome but unfortunately I can’t find the web page that it was on. I looked into the Cushings Syndrome after I acquired records from a hospital stay . All the doctors wrote that I was slightly cushingoid (sp?) but none of them did or said anything about it to me. Also, they all wrote that I had hirutism and thinning hair. All the hormone tests for CAH were ordered and of course all of them came back in the normal level range.  

So anyway, I’m very interested in a new way of dosing and I’m considering going to a naturalist to help me with the CAH, it’s not like the Endos have helped. The ones that I have think it’s normal for me to be going bald and to have a beard because they say, "Your levels are super!" They say use ROGAIN and get lasar hair removal. This proves that there is no medical help for me and that I’m just there for them to study. They should pay me and not the other way around!  

Thanks,
