Food Allergy Update!!!

Ben went to a new allergy doctor this morning. I made an appointment with a new doctor cause I just wasn't in agreement with the last doctor. Not that I didn't believe that he had showed a reaction to egg and peanut when they tested him, but I thought it was excessive to expect us to come in every 6 months and not have a plan to retest him until he was 5. So anyway, the new doctor retested him today for egg and peanut and he had no reaction! I was originally told he would most likely grow out of the egg allergy, but not the peanut. So I find it suspicious that he is testing negative now. The new doc even said that a minor skin reaction like he would have isn't really an allergy. Plus despite contacting the old doctor and filing paperwork to have his records transferred they didn't do that. The new doc has given us the green light to slowly start reintroducing egg and peanut into his diet. We will be celebrating this evening with some brown sugar cookies! Hurray!
