More Allergies

Gavin went back to the allergist today for aeroallergen testing. Guess what? He's allergic to more things....trees, weeds, grasses, cats and dogs. The allergist he see works closely with his Ped. GI doc and EE. Thankfully, the allergist says to NOT do the elemental diet at this point in time. Gavin will go back three times in one week later in August for more food allergy testing, skin prick testing and skin patch testing. We'll possibly eliminate more foods from his diet, go in for another scope/biopsies and go from there. This is quite the lenghty process with no quick or easy answers. We know we'll eventually get this all figured out. We are certainly learning a lesson in patience.
