Allergies Oh My!

I finally convinced my archaic computer to cooperate!

Here are a few pictures of his allergy saga...

Getting ready for the first day of testing, before he realized it wasn't going to feel so good.  I love his baby sized hospital gown, so cute!

This is what the patch looked like.  The purple dots are marking the 20 different spots where they prick tested him for type one allergies.

This is right after they pulled the patch off on Wednesday.  The bloody one above the 10 is corn.  They drew a line under each of the foods so it was clear where the reaction should have been.  When you see the next pic you'll realize that was not necessary with poor Marek's back...

The foods are in rows, 1-5 are the ones on the far left from top to bottom, the next column is 6-10, then 11-15, and the far right column is 16-20.

1. Milk     6. Barley     11. Pea     16. Turkey

2. Egg    7. Rye    12.Green Bean 17. Carrot

3. Wheat  8. Potato     13. Beef     18. Garlic

4. Soy     9. Rice  14. Chicken      19. Peanut

5. Oat    10. Corn    15. Pork      20. Control

This is when they read the results on Thursday.

And for good measure, this is Marek snuggling his pops when we first got home... I love my boys.
