I would say yes: DS with Aspergers has asthma, eczema and IBS

DD (NT) does not.

Hard to say, DS1 (NT) has bowel problems, DS2 (ASD) no allergies but prone to chest infections and eye infections, DS3 (unDX but quirky) allergic to penicillin.

DS got stung by nettles last year, used a dock leaf and piriton but it was still angry and swollen days later.

I have one dd nt with no allergies and one son not nt with allergies to nuts, wheat, egg, horses, cats, dogs etc. He also has ezcema and looks like he may be developing asthma. I have often wonder if a weakend immune system is somehow at the bottom of all of it.

All mine have allergies DD1 nt developed asthma at 7 after being extremely ill hayfever at 10 closely followed by egg and nut allergies.
DS [ADHD/complex learning disabilities] has an allergy to either bee,wasp or hornet were not sure which one.
DD2 [borderline ADHD] has a penicillin allergy she also has an unknown seasonal allergy after she was bitten by a tick whilst she and I where hill walking, all we know is she can't go out on hot sunny days as her face blows up like she's been in a boxing ring her arms also get tiny blisters.
