I'm a regular (not to allergies) but for boring admin reasons am on a weird nickname today.
My 9mo had skin prick tests at St Thomas' last month confirming an egg allergy (4mm and 10mm) but apparently no longer a reaction to milk. They did IgE blood testing for milk, egg and nuts and I've just got home from a trip away to find a letter which explains nothing but says: "egg allergy... suspected nut allergy...cows milk 0.1, egg 0.08, peanut 25.7, almond 0.35, hazelnut 0.67, cashew 1.88, walnut 0.01, brazil nut 1.47 and pine nut 0."
Can anyone decipher these for me?! I have no follow up appt and all it says is they will arrange for a dietician to call me to advise on how to avoid nuts and eggs.. I would assume the higher the number the worse the allergy but then milk is higher than egg here, and egg triggered a significant reaction (hives, gasping etc) when she had it.
I think I need to phone them, or the GP, for more info but would appreciate any advice from you guys!
