GwenKristin-
If you don’t mind me asking, what form of CAH does your son have? Reason I ask is that the docs are still trying to determine the "cause" of my boys’ Adrenal Insuff. Both are saltwasters, my younger son is much more severe than my almost 3 year old. The docs were convinced that my boys have Hypoplasia rather than CAH (boys levels- all seem normal), but in mid December the genetic testing done by the research department @ CHOP (the hospital my boys’ endo is part of) determined my boys do not have a gene deletion causing hypoplasia- so they are at a loss.... they haved "ruled out" a number of other disorders that can cause AI. My older son was not diagnosed until he was a 25 months- but we did have ALOT of issues with him, he wasn’t neccessarly sick, just wasn’t "thriving" he HATED to eat- he is still only 25 llbs- but has gained 5 pounds since treatment (yeah!!!!). Would love to share additional info with the boys’ docs- they have reached out to a few "experts" in adrenal disease to help determine next steps.
