[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did OIT, which did work. However, my child flatly refused to continue the maintenance dose. It turned into an epic battle of the wills and we tried every vehicle a peanut could be eaten in and we just could not do it nightly. She was in 4th grade at the time. Now she is a teen and we do avoidance. My thinking at the time is if something happened and she had a bad allergic reaction and I had not pursued the OIT, how would I feel? I felt like I would have a lot of regret. I do have sort of a clean conscience knowing that I did everything medically available to me to try to prevent a serious outcome for her. I do think OIT is a very imperfect treatment option and it's a big burden for not that great of an outcome. So I see why you are struggling with the decision.[/quote] Yes this is how I feel. I want the clean conscience but also feel that it’s a lot to take on for an uncertain outcome.[/quote]
