I have posted here before about 14 yr old DD and her suspected dairy allergy/intolerance. GP got a rast test done which showed that she wasn't allergic to cows milk but had very high levels of non specific allergy. He has referred to a paediatrician specialising in allergies and we also have an appointment with a dietition at half term. We have kept her off dairy and then tried reintroducing a tiny it produces a far more marked reaction each time. So we decided no more dairy trials for the moment. I am concerned about calcium etc so have tried using soya milk/creem etc and after no reaction initially we have moved on to a very bad reaction last weekend which she is still recovering from. So I now have to assume she is reacting to soya too.
My concern is if she eats something by accident (and fortunately she is very sensible about this) the reactions are getting worse each time and where will it stop. Has anyone come across a worsening reaction each time? I'm not sure really what I'm asking here, I feeling really down about my poor girl at the moment - I think we've reached the stage of her having to take her own food wherever she goes but we've still made mistakes ourselves with what's in stuff. I know some of you/your children are extreme allergy sufferers - how do you cope?
