I feel like crying right now (pregnancy hormones probably not helping).
Ok so a bit of a story, DD is allergic to yeast and dairy intolerant...all good I got used to making dietary changes and reading labels etc. even though we still run into difficulties.
Then along comes DS who can't have wheat has a recent diagnosed egg allergy and now DD just gave him something with peanut butter on it and he has reacted and come out in hives.
I'm at a loss of what to now. For the egg allergy I took him to GP who gave me a referral to paediatrician (his reaction was very bad to the tiniest amount of egg). Went to paediatrician said yep egg allergy we will see you again when he is two!! So what the egg do I do if he is accidentally exposed and has an anaphylactic reaction?!! He literally came out in severe hives to a rice grain size of egg, can imagine if he had more! I tested on his skin and came out in swollen aside red area the size of my hand.
I feel like every time we are invited somewhere or to a party I ave to say no as don't want to run the risk but I can't wrap him up in cotton wool...it's so tough!
