CP Egg Allergy

My daughter has had eczema for months, and now that she is over the one year mark--we took her for allergy testing. The big thing that they think is causing her eczema is an egg allergy. (She eats egg products for breakfast every morning) Although they doubt it is a severe allergy--due to the fact that it only seems to be causing her eczema, for the time being the doctors want us to avoid any egg products with her. They also prescribed an epi pen just in case. With epi pens, do you carry them in the diaper bag--I would assume so, because that way you would always have it on you. We have to get bloodwork done to find out her numbers, but except for eczema-she hasn't had any reactions.This is all so new to us, so any suggestions/advice/etc will be most helpful.

Re: CP Egg Allergy

  • I have no experience with an egg allergy or eczema, but I do know the flu vax is an egg-based vaccine and people who are allergic could have a reaction to it so you'll want to talk to her pedi about it.
