Hello,
We went to an allergist for my dd's food problems. The blood test results came back as allergic to wheat, eggs, milk, and nuts. The allergist has us scheduled for a skinprick test later this month. I have a couple questions.
How reliable are each of these tests for children under 2? I was expecting milk and an intolerance to soy, but was not expecting the positive reactions to the wheat, nuts and eggs.
Dd does not like strangers touching her, and she definately doesn't like doctors and nurses touching her. The blood work was a real struggle, and I'm worried about the scratch test. Those of you who have had your lo's allergy tested, any tips or advice? What exactly do they do? Does she have to be restrained, or lay still? What's involved?
Thanks, any advice is appreciated.
