Kathryn I thought you were milk/soy intolerant, why do I have that in my head for some reason?
LOL Mashi, you are right, I am cow's milk and eggs intolerant- it didn't occur to me, I suppose because it's not a "true" "allergy", kwim? Also because it's still a relatively new diagnosis I still forget to mention it
The rash started about 2 weeks ago and coincided with our trip to Center Parcs. That week he ate Hipp Organic jarred food for
every lunch and dinner (free in all restaurants @ Center Parcs!). He also threw up
a lot more than normal during the week (with mild reflux he's always been a spitter). Prior to our holiday virtually all his meals were homecooked with the very odd exception, when he had an Organix or Plum pot. We wondered if it was a problem with store- bought jarred foods in general, although I couldn't see why that should be.
He also cut his first tooth whilst we were there, and I did think it was just teething- related. But it's been 2 weeks since the tooth appeared and the rash seems to subside and then flare again.
The reason I thought of tomatoes this evening is because his face went nuts immediately when I fed him bolognaise for dinner, and he moaned all the way through sinner, even though he ate most of it willingly. It wasn't a problem at all at lunchtime or yesterday, when he had cheese sauce- based meals.
I then Googled the ingredients for all the store- bought food he has had, and
all the Hipp jars he had at Center Parcs contain tomatoes, apart from one. The Organix and Plum products he had eaten prior to that don't contain them.
Do you think it's just a coincidence? He has a dr appt in the morning to see if his latest ear infection has gone so I will bring it up with her- will take along the photo to show her.
thanks again
