Hi everyone,
Very glad I found this group. I have a 6yr old daughter with a peanut allergy and asthma. Her asthma is not being controlled by the inhalers and we really think she is allergic to other things. We have gone through skin testing and done a RAST test for 3 things(peanuts,milk,and wheat).....the milk and wheat came back negative. The milk one really, really surprised me because everytime she has ice cream, milk, cottage cheese, or yogurt she has an asthma attach and her eczema comes back. Needless to say we have removed all dairy from her diet.
We have gone to her pediatrician and asked for IGG, IGA, and IGM testing and she kind of laughed at us. I am really in need of help or advice. We know our daughter is allergic or has other sensitivities, we just are not sure exactely what route to take. ANY advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, kristen
