update on baked milk progress (http://allergy.hyperboards.com/action/view_topic/topic_id/19820)
Just wanted to share the latest on our baked egg/milk journey with two words: pumpkin pie!!
(We are supposed to go back for new scratch tests soon.)
OK - here we go. We have a milk challenge set for May 18. Allergist insisted on a scratch test, which we did yesterday. DS had a 3mm wheal and 4 mm flare. Allergist says he has a 90 percent chance of passing.
It's going to be a long 5 weeks waiting!

Hi all,
I can't believe I'm really typing this - but DS passed his dairy challenge. It was last Friday. I waited a few days to report because I wanted to be sure it was true. But he has been gobbling cheese and ice cream and yogurt for a few days now, so it's real I think.
Honestly, I had been mentally composing a post to you all about how he didn't pass and how we'd get there someday, but how I was soooo disappointed. But as the hours wore on during the test, it dawned on me that we were going to make it, and I just couldn't believe it. It's hard to get my mind around it. I bought a half gallon of ice cream on Saturday, and almost started crying in the checkout line. So many options open to us now....
Needless to say, I hope and pray that we will all have this feeling some day - and will leave all these evil allergies behind.
Lots of love,
Sue
