Hanky had his allergy test this morning. He had scratch tests done, and tested positive for oat and peanut allergies.
In a way, it's a relief. It explains everything he's gone through, from the patchy skin to eczema flare-ups, to the time his face started getting red and puffy while eating at Texas Roadhouse.
I'm sad that he has to deal with this, but hey, at least we know what we're dealing with now.
In other news, the allergist recommended Aveeno lotion to help with the sensitive skin. Um, what? DH called him back and the doctor wisely recommended another brand......without oats.

Hi Lindsay,
Sorry about the allergies. But now you know whats wrong and dealing with it is easier than worrying what's wrong.
As my children also have food allergies, I know. And sometimes it is difficult to say no you can't have this but i found that they adapt quite easily to the rules as they feel it does not make them ill.
Good luck.
Caroline
