My 4-year-old non-salt-waster (i.e. we have never needed florinef) has always craved salt. With all of the things that we need to cover in each appointment, I’ve never talked with the ped endo about this (though I really should). Olivia is an 11-beta (only 2% of 11-betas are salt-wasters) so we carefully watch for hypertension (blood pressure and plasma renin are regularly monitored) -- so far so good.

I do know that when she is sick and needs a stress dose that by giving her salt and sugar also she responds much faster.

Best regards,

Janet
