Well we had our appt today. Meh. Same old. So much for any hope of her outgrowing this and no point in challenging it either. I guess I'm here for the long haul. Ragweed was a big + this time and I don't remember it from the past.
Sigh. This new allergist was VERY nice and seemed up on things which is good. Apparently peach allergy is a big problem in Spain and Italy and is their equivalent of peanut. She even asked if we had lived there which I thought was interesting.

Meh is right... hope her arm feels better now!
Glad that you like the new allergist, though. :thumbsup:
THIS time I had the forethought to take some benedryl with me so I gave her some when we left. She came home and slept for 3 hours. It looks a lot better now. She is up stairs playing barbies with her bro which is a good sigh.
Meh. I should have had her test walnuts because they are local unlike all the other tree nuts. I TOTALLY forgot. And I wanted to ask about the damn shampoo but forgot. Ho hum.
Ooooh, I'm itching just looking at that photo. Poor Helga, so uncomfortable.
Sorry it wasn't better news.
:console:
Luckily I just held my hope and didn't say anything to her. She is a pretty matter of fact kind of gal which is good.
I just come here and unload ;)
Glad that the allergist was a good one and up on the latest.
Interesting about peach allergy.
Thanks for thinking about us. At least I got a new epi script out of all of this.
The birch and the ragweed have puffed back up again tonight. I might drug her again before bed.
Oh wow. Her poor ARM!!
We also had ds retested in late sept when he got his asthma checkup. Still huge 17mm pn wheal.
:heart:
Its still really angry looking today in a couple of spots. Ugh.
:grouphug:
Topical benadryl is awesome. (Just noting. From relatively recent experience, I might add... we kept some on DD's arm for about four days-- it really limited the extent of the eczema flare.)
