Hi all,
 
 I recently got an LLL helping email from a mom who has Congenital  Adrenal 
Hyperplasia. She has been taking Dexamethasone (a potent oral  corticosteroid) 
.5 mg for several years, and is 7 months pregnant. I'm giving  her info from 
Hale's, but would love to tell her more if anyone is familiar with  the drug or 
the disorder. I'm wondering why her doctor is letting her take it  pregnant, 
but discouraging breastfeeding? 
 
Any help would be appreciated. Mom is in Harrisburg, PA.
 
Thanks!
Shannon
