My daughter also suddenly had high cortisol levels at her last blood test. We're going to test again next time.
Would you like to try something crazy? I am probably a CAH carrier (don't know for sure) and definitely have a lot of diabetes in my family. About 20 years ago I read a book about food allergies that fit me to a T. I just started eliminating all these foods - everyone thinks I'm totally crazy - but basically, most of the foods I don't eat are carbs. I don't have diabetes even though my father, grandmother, sister and now daughter either did or do. I think it's my crazy diet. I don't eat any grains - no wheat, corn, rice, barley, etc. or cane sugar. I also don't eat dairy but I don't know if that's related to this. Because your daughter has hives, maybe she has food allergies. She could try the diet for a week or so and see what happens. If she does do it, she could feel worse before she feels better so stick it out for a week.
