I have a questions for the Doctors...
 
Two years ago Percy had an adrenal removed (the 'easy' one).  That
cured all the symptoms for almost two years.  Now, within the last
few months she's started showing symptoms again.  Swollen vulva,
acting 'motherly', and although not balding, her hair doesn't seem
to be growing in very well from where she was shaved last fall when
she was sick (diarrhea problem).
 
We tried antibiotics in January to see if an infection could be
the culprit, but they didn't effect it much at all.  (judging
by the swollen vulva, that is)
 
I know that she needs one adrenal to survive.  What do I do
now?
 
BTW, she's 6 1/2 years old, and healthy except for this.  Dr.
Kawasaki performed the first adrenalectomy.
 
Thanks!!!
 
- Nancy
