We got referred to take Jack to see an allergy specialist. We knew he's probably allergic to peanuts with his two previous experiences. We wanted to find out what else he's allergic to. He doesn't like bread. We thought maybe he doesn't take wheat well.
They did all the food allergy tests on his back. They used some pointe little brushes with different foods to see which react. Turned out he's only allergic to peanuts, a little allergic to other nuts, but not allergic at all to wheat, dairy, eggs, or she'll fish. Yay!! So now we know he can never have peanuts or any peanut related products. Poor thing. Luckily we don't eat that much peanut stuff in our house. He got some junior epi pens that he has to carry probably his whole life.
Loved the doctor. He's a very friendly and knowledgeable Indian guy. It was a very pleasant visit, so pleasant that daddy decided to go and get tested as well :)
