Hey Smily Girl,  Sounds like you have had some rough times. I am 52, and live in the U.P. of Michigan - about 6 hours from you.

I take 5 mg. Cortef, and 1 mg. of Florinef each morning, and then a .25 of Dexamethasone in the evening. The latter seems to help with the morning until the Cortef starts working. I am also salt wasting, and that is why the Florinef. I just started using it in the last year. I was taught to eat lots of salt, and even then when I have had tests done, they usually say I am dehydrated.

After reading your post, I am very greatfull that I was born a boy, and not have to go through all those surguries. I can’t even imagine.

Well, will talk at you later,

Wayne
