Marilyn,
Welcome to the list--I have a 2-1/2 year old that is allergic/anaphylactic to
dairy. It's good that your taking your daughter to an allergist. They will
probably repeat the test or do a series of new ones. Was wondering if it was
skin test that her pediatrician performed that she responded positively to?
My son tested positive for eggs on the skin test--yet, after an incident where
he stacked chairs together and climbed onto the counter and ate several
deviled eggs w/out any reaction whatsoever they (his allergist) concluded he had a
false positive skin test to eggs.
Good Luck
Lisa
