Definitelt get a paed appt. If I was you I'd have a look for an allergy tester in your area. We had our son tested last weekend cos our hospital weren't taking us seriously. It only cost us £20 and they tested pretty much everything. Definitely worth a look, £20 is nothing when it comes to our childrens safety. xx

Hi, I am suprised you haven't been referred to a paediatrician - I would ask for this to be done - can you see a different GP? I would think you would need some guidance on excluding/reintroducing foods safely while giving a balanced diet.
My son is 21w, allergic or intolerant to cows milk protein so I am dairy free while bf but this was picked up by blood tests done by a paediatrician. When I saw her she was shocked that the GP hadn't referred me sooner - he had given prescriptions for 2 meds for reflux but the vomiting etc stopped after 3-4w of being dairyfree. Ask for a referral..xx

my dd is 9 months old. and started having reactions to almost everything she eats. her ace goes bright red and swells up. once her breathing was affected.
my nephew (sisters son) has nut allergy and milk, dairy and wheat.
i told my doc this all he has dne is prescribed me piriton for her. which does help. but im worried it will progress like my nephews reactions. he has to have special diet and a epi pen in case of annaphalitic shock....
has anyone any adivse for me





I cant believe they have referred u, my ds now 5 had servere allergies and they carried out his tests 1 wk after having a reaction, my ds is now 16 wks and had her tests done 6 wks ago these were just as a precaution and showed she to is allergic to milk and soya
Take ur lo back to the doc for tests!!!!
