Hello everyone. I am new here. My situation involves my 4 year old
son. He was stung in April 07. We experienced anaphylactic shock. I
would say it was the scariest moment of my life but I think that this
entire year living in constant fear has been the scariest part. I am
so glad I found this message board. I have been looking for some type
of support and I have found nothing until now. My son will be getting
skin tests next month. He has already had the RAST test and fire ants
and yellow jackets showed up as an allergy. I am not looking forward
to the testing as my son is not very fond of any doctors but I can
hardly blame him with two ambulance trips to the emergency room.I know
each person is unique with their reactions but any pointers or advice
would be wonderful. Thank you for the opportunity to vent a little. It
is hard for people with out these types of allergies to understand.
