Changing policy after 5 years doesnt seem like that long a time, agree.
But its nothing new...the tolerance treatments are the same.
We dont have much an idea about the length of tolerance. Tolerance has been greeted as a cure by some. Cautious optimism is the best way forward.
Every study is touted as a cure on social media , news, and yes many poorly informed people will skip up to us as parents and ask us in joyful tones, ' when we are going to get the peanut cure'?.
Which is SO annoying on so many fronts, like any other allergen isnt scary enough? oh, and the INSULT that is implied that we havent bothered to get our kid 'cured'.
We can choose to be annoyed for only so long. < why do you think we need wine? have given up chocolate because of the dairy>
< btw in terms of cures, the UK doesnt even have allergy shots as wasnt deemed safe due to deaths>
I am sure that new studies on the areas we mentioned are being poured over by the allergy boffins of the world. why would you think they are not, just because they arent broadcasting it? getting grants for studies is not an over night process is it? <oh, that word....that word so over used in England recently, the B one, yes Brexit, we wait and see how that impacts us with regard to studies>
Most allergic children, who grow into allergic adults, stay with the same allergy and from what I gather it doesnt change. They cope with flares of asthma, environmental allergies, if they have them, and avoid the food allergens. <What comfort that would be for us>
No doctor would base any guideline on one child, and this study wasnt one child.
Every single person with their infant, gives them food at home. I think I would prefer the guidelines are there for those that are considered at risk and get support. Many will ignore, those that are not well advised will take risks. But some will be helped.
