M1Hi Kathy, thanks again for responding. Well my daughter’s last afternoon 17 ohp was 140ng/dl. And actually her 17 ohp has not been that low in a long time, usually in the 2 or 300’s 5 hours after her 3am dose.
Today she had the ultrasounds of her ovaries and thyroid done, and labwork to check for insulin resistance and pcos, and thyroid hormones. Hopefully we will know something MOnday when she goes back for her physical.
I think she is getting the andro from her ovaries or something. So if we get her on Yasmin, it should help lower those androgens and possibly we could reduce her cortef a little since her 17 ohp has been running low. Right now she doesn’t even look like she is being treated, her face is broke out pretty bad and she has no idea what is happening to her face and body.
Right now if we let up on the cortef to let up on the 17 ohp her andro is going to hit the roof. So basically the endo doesn’t know what to do so she just said to leave it as it is. I will be sure to post what we find. This new pedi we have is wonderful, I’ve heard a lot about her and she is proving herself to be worthy. Take care
