Kaden was way oversuppressed for a long time. She was always very clingy and extremly cranky! At 17 months she was only 19 lbs, although she would eat 24 hours a day, if allowed. She also was on 7.5 mg of cortef daily. I kept questioning her endo, and he always said her levels were perfect. At her last endo appt, in July, her OHP level was >5. So, I got a second opinion. This endo said he would like her levels to be more around 200. So he cut her to 5 mg a day. She has put on 3 pounds and grown another inch. Her crankiness has improved a lot and she is not as clingy. I have noticed a dramatic change in her attitude since the reduction of her meds.
