Allergy Update

I can't believe I didn't do this sooner. In my defense, there isn't a lot to update. We saw the specialist who decided not to do the big bad tests on Sophie at this point. She said at this point it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.Sophie hadn't been exposed to anything new that we could pinpoint and it is only being a one time hive breakout there is a good likelihood it was a fluke. We don't even have to discuss going back to the specialist unless Sophie breaks out again.

The specialist did tell us an interesting fact: Over half of the population will break out in hives over something they ate at least once in there lives and the majority will never have a repeat outbreak.

So, we just wait. Since our appt Sophie has had fish, shrimp, ketchup and plenty of SPF so hopefully the good Doc was right and hers was a one time thing.
