But we discovered his allergy to nuts when he was 18 months old and had an anaphylactic reaction. So scary! He was also allergic to eggs and tomatoes, but seems to have outgrown those. We deal with exzema and mild asthma as well. I would love to tell you all about it, but I dont have enough room to type. :) We did take him to a specialist in OKC when he was four - they do a blood test there instead of the skin test and it was so, so helpful, because as they grow, their allergies can change. Also, the most important thing, especially on the nuts, is to educate Tripp. Mason has always known not to take candy, cookie,after game snack, or anything offered from someone before asking if it has nuts. Its hard but it is ok, once you have it figured out. Anyway, call me sometime, would love to chat!Ladd Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453738519455249748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850635104977670289.post-30956984344841796262012-05-02T08:27:51.228-05:002012-05-02T08:27:51.228-05:00poor buddy:( will be praying for you guyspoor buddy:( will be praying for you guysKatyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109157686484032363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850635104977670289.post-6993793011123586122012-05-01T10:07:52.113-05:002012-05-01T10:07:52.113-05:00Jenn,

It is intense (I won't even lie) and it's not even something we have started full out, but my husband has had crazy digestion issues his whole life (things that just become accepted, but not really warned against). We have started a practicing GAPS before starting the intro diet and have already seen results. <br /><br />To put it simply, I've heard it said as pressing the restart button on our bodies and eating. It does not heal everything, but might be something you could look into - it is ok for children as well. Lots of blogs out there that talk about it a few are:<br /><br />http://www.thenourishinggourmet.com/<br />http://www.keeperofthehome.org/<br />http://deliciouslyorganic.net/<br />The diet info is here:<br />http://www.GAPSdiet.com/INTRODUCTION_DIET.html<br /><br />Good luck with all of this!Lea Arnoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16303892543368063970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850635104977670289.post-35912131537155093272012-04-29T09:50:40.028-05:002012-04-29T09:50:40.028-05:00I had not even thought of vegan recipes...that is ...I had not even thought of vegan recipes...that is so smart!

We did blood work on the same day as the skin testing, so I am hoping that it is really clear what we are dealing with after that. I have heard of false negatives before on the skin test, but not false positives. That would be so crazy to change everything and it be wrong! Nice to "meet" you!jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16340017086722980044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6850635104977670289.post-42973204409541333422012-04-27T17:52:57.881-05:002012-04-27T17:52:57.881-05:00I just wanted to say that my daughter is alergic t...I just wanted to say that my daughter is alergic to cow's milk and before she was diagnosed she had the skin test done twice. The first time, she had 4's on corn, soy and peanuts. I freaked out because corn is literally in almost everything. Then we took her to a different clinic for the same test and they decided she was allergic to nothing. So I took her to a third doctor who did an IgG blood sensitivity test and found that she was extremely allergic to cow's milk. We have been dairy-free for 4 years and she is much improved. I just wanted to say that food allergies are a life change--for everyone in the family. Maybe get a second opinion, just to be sure? Obviously he's allergic to something, but my daughter had asthma and eczema, too, and it turned out to be cow's milk which she did not react to at all on the skin test.WriterGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207047224100353634noreply@blogger.com
