Hi,

My name is Yucel. I am living in Fort Worth, Texas. I have been watching this great site for 3 months. This is a great place to find any kind of information regarding CAH. I would also like to remind you people how lucky you guys are living in a great country and having this kind of opportunities. However, unfortunately, there are some people in some other part of the world having  difficulties just to get medication for their CAH effected loved ones.

My nephew, 5 months old Murat Can, lives in Turkey with his family. He was diagnosed for CAH a few weeks after his birth. CAH is very rare in Turkey, and is almost unknown by public.  The pills for Murat Can is not available in Turkey, and they need to obtain them from Europe. His Doctor helped Murat’s family to get his medication for the first time. Now, Murat Can has supply for 2 weeks, and it’s very difficult for his family to get his pills from Europe. Therefore, I wanted to help them. I was planning to buy his medication (Hydrocortisone 10mg, and Florinef 0.1mg) here in the U.S. and send them to Turkey. Murat’s family faxed the prescription and Doctor’s report regarding his illness to me. A friend of mine is going to Turkey for vacation this weekend and I was planning to send these pills with him. However, Pharmacies here didn’t accept the prescription from Turkey, and I don’t know any Doctor who could help me to get these pills. I would like to know from anyone of you, if anyone had this kind of problems, or if someone had some advise/suggestions for me!

I would greatly appreciate any help for this matter!
