Hi All,
DD was diagnosed with nut allergies at 1, had anaphylaxis last year from nuts, diagnosed with shellfish allergy (worse than nuts) last year aged 4, now aged 5 they have found a latex allergy (please no silly jokes).
I am struggling with the latex allergy (and worried what else might be out there). We're avoiding cross risk foods (avocado, chestnut etc) and have told school , dentist and dr. I'm worried about the unknowns - where else could latex be and how to avoid it (rubber bands, condoms when she's older, swimming hats and goggles, some toys) but clothing / shoes are not always fully labelled. I've phoned Zoggs, Tesco for the bouncy castle and the trampoline people who've not called back yet.
Any tips please on how to manage this? She's had to refuse two parties as the soft play providers said (i) there is latex and (ii) they don't know and can't check with manufacturers.
