Thanks for the help Peter.
I am still scared to get a diagnosis but I think talking to some CAH XX men would help. Now that you mentioned where I might find some I will try to connect up with more people in more places.
I will see how these guys have dealt with being male and wanting to have high testosterone and be healthy while dealing with CAH.
After I learn a bit more about that I might feel secure enough about this to go for a test and see if I have CAH.
My first step when I feel more secure is to call my clinic that did my bloodwork and ask him about my test results and CAH. Get his response on it and see if he wants me to get more tests done.
OK-Pregnancy, how does it effect CAH testing?
Can someone who is pregnant or nursing be treated for CAH?
If I DO have CAH maybe I can stabilize my condition without testosterone while nursing my baby so I can nurse for longer than 3 months.
My Social services worker wants me taking testosterone as soon as I can because she knows my mood without it is unstable. I refuse to nurse for less than three months with my baby because he deserves a good start and I just happen to be the best parent in the world.
But what we don't need is me being mentally unstable after my pregnancy hormones cool down.
But I could nurse for 6 months without taking T, lose the baby weight, lose the breast weight and start my kid off super good if I could take cort or something to make me not such a mean freak. (thats how I describe myself, short of using the B word when I'm not on T!!!)
DON'T SAY GET DIAGNOSED FIRST. I WANT TO THINK ABOUT THIS BEFORE HAND!
I KNOW I NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR, I NEED YOU TO HELP ME GET THE FACTS FIRST BECAUSE I AM AFRAID!
If I learn everything about CAH and I don't have it then at least I learned ok, I want to know, please, just help k?
Thanks again Peter!
