Why we went :DD#2 has eczema on her cheek that we can't get to go away even with the help of the dermatologist. She has had reactions to kiwi (hives, rash on mouth, congestion, swollen eyes). She also had a reaction to Dairy (Throwing up and mucus poops with yogurt, rash around mouth with cows milk). She got a rash around her mouth with avocado. Last reaction was with soy (runny nose, sneezing, and rash around mouth).
She was skin prick tested for kiwi, milk, soy, and avocado. They reported that only the Kiwi was positive. The milk and soy looked pretty big but when they measured them they said they were not positive.
I was told no kiwi for 1 yr then we will do a kiwi challenge in office. Since the milk and soy were negative (even though these reactions just happened in the last 2 weeks) I was told to slowly give them to her again at home and call them after 1 week with the results.
I understand no kiwi (pretty easy) but I feel nervous and bad to give my DD#2 dairy again.
As to the eczema they told me to try a prescription anti fungal cream...maybe she has a secondary infection. I sure hope it helps but feel doubtful because last time at the dermatologist it looked worse and he didn't think it was infected.
