Lynda -

I have a two and a half year old son who tested positive for a dairy allergy
at 10 months old (the doctor did a blood test then, and they did a skin test
at about a year and a half that also confirmed it). His symptoms have been
very mild though and lately he has been handling an occasional slice of
cheese, or a few spoonfuls of yogurt with no problem. I am, however,
reluctant to give him too much of any one thing for fear of causing a
reaction. So, the CAP RAST test sounds interesting to me. What kind of a test
is it, and how can I get more information about it, just in case our
pediatrician hasn't heard of it?

Thanks in advance,

Tracy
