Hi Carol,
Her cortef is still 5 mg in the am and 7 1/2 mg in the pm and she also gets .1 of florinef each morning even though she is not salt wasting. Her GH has increased over the years due to her growth. She is 10 1/2 years old and is just over 5’5". By my estimations, she will be taller than me by this summer (I’m 5’5 3/4" and my husband is 6’2"). She is still on Lupron, but I’m not sure how much longer. Her skin is starting to break out really bad and she is getting very curvy in all the right places. She is also starting to get a little moody. Sounds like full fledged puberty to me. My 12 year old daughter got her period at 11 and she is non-CAH (she is only about 5’3"). Hope I covered everything. :)
