Sorry, accidently hit enter!

Have you been under a lot of emotional or mental stress lately?  My mother passed away in December after a year and a half long battle with leukemia, and I was a mess!  Not only did I feel crummy, but my 17-OH was outrageous!  The endo.’s don’t know a lot about the effects of emotional or mental stress on CAH patients, but it definitely took its toll on my body, and my 17-OH.  In June of ’05 it was 16, by the end of October ’05 it was 3400.  I have been on more Cortef in the last year than I have been in the last 10 years when I was a lot more physically active.  I am not sure what the Clomid would do to your levels, but let your endo. know how your feeling also, rather than just relying on the 17-OH levels.
