I always check adrenal while I am there. I am in the Chgo area but you
might find someone closer. Depends on how well your kid responds. Some
vets use cryo which if they are experienced may be a safer easier way. At
this time I am not doing cryo. See what you find. Best of luck to you and
your kid and you may be able to mangage hime just fine on pred for a while
too which gives you more of an opportunity to prepare and look etc. Best to
you.
