Can I pick your brains, have read some of the threads and thought I would see if anybody has any advice.
DS (2) has had about 4 reactions to different food (including egg) varying from welts all over body, to rash around face, to slight swelling around lips. The reactions, especially compared to what some of you deal with, have been relatively minor. He has mild eczema which seems to flair up from time to time and become very itchy. He has had some swelling around the lips, when he possibly came into, but not eaten, nuts.
My question is, do you think we should push for testing at the Doctors as they seem really uninterested or should we pay privately, if you can, or should we just relax about the whole thing and see what happens?
I suppose I am worried about finding out about a new allergy through a severe reaction.
Sorry hope that is not too long to read.
