After waiting 4 months for an appointment to see a consulatant dermatologist for my DS (10 months) who has severe excema- I feel utterly disappointed. He barely looked at my son's excema and all he wanted to do was prescribe steroids( been there, done that). We want allergy testing and he strongly advised us against these saying they were a waste of time. After some very strong persuasion from myself, he referred us to a paediatrician- another long wait I expect. I want my DS to have a comprehensive allergy testing- has anyone had their children tested for lots of things?? Does anyone know of an allergist that is willing to test for most foods/materials? I am willing to go private and don't care about the cost. I really want to help my baby and try and ease his suffering a little. Please get in contact if you have any experience of this
