We are doing an elimination diet for salicylates.  Makes so much sense, all these foods we suspected were connected all along!
Glad you have found a pattern - it may seem overwhelming at first but you will adapt soon.  Like pp says, once you know what your LO CAN have you will manage fine.

I think it came on more since she is eating way more foods.  She was going through a growth spurt. Yesterday my grocery cart was WHITE, no colors!  DH put it best when he said its the double edged sword of antioxidants!  Of course additives as well but we ate alot of colorful fruit.

So far, rash is eased somewhat and fewer, not gone, but fewer night wakes.

We continue to have eczema.  No more hives since failsafe diet though.  Her face is healing too, but she still is on the metrogel which is fo perioral dermatitis.  Dermatologist appointment is only on Nov 10th ???

That sounds promising - maybe the eczema will just take longer to go?
