I know someone who's daughter tested postive on the RAST for eggs, but very,
very low, so she was told to try eggs. The child broke out in hives
immediately and went into anaphalaxis. Contrarily, for wheat the child had a
very high level on the RAST but shows very few symptoms upon eating it. Go
figure! Basically, the numbers don't always mean much, unfortunately. I
would advise you to be very careful.
