Maybe we should put a little real pb on her leg or something - to see if she has a skin reaction. I wonder if that would work. I know with her milk it would be anywhere she was touched by it.

 

Hmmmmmm.

I just don't know how these allergies work, to be honest.  They scare me and I'm confused as to why Joey would have a reaction one time, but not another?!?! 

I think I would be too nervous to actually put it on her --- and I'm not sure it would be conclusive.  I mean, if you did her leg, it might be that she doesn't have an allergy to the TOUCH but does if she actually eats it?!?!

Lea LaJeunesse-Askren

I know what you mean - they suck. They do same the more they eat them the more the allergy develops, so that may have been the case with Joey. Where A has had 2 - allergy test, they think she most likely does not have an allergy. But they do want me to give her nuts weekly. And now I am to scared!

Jodi&Joe

It is frightening.

Does she have a pedi appt any time soon?  Maybe you could give them to her there -- I don't know, something reassuring about being in their office.  See how it goes that first time and then maybe it will be easier the second time?!?!

Our pedi said to use my epi pen and call 911 if we saw any reaction.

 

i think I am going to cal her allergist and see what he says. maybe we can do a challenge in is office.

If she was tested, and it came back negative, I think I would go for it.

Oh ya, she has been tested 2 if not 3 times and everyone came back negative. I know people think I am acting careless, but if she didn't have 3 negative tests I would not be trying this!!!
