[quote=Anonymous]1. Desensitize if you can! Has been a game changer. Mine had anaphylaxis to eggs, peanuts & some tree nuts. Also, keeping exposure to other potential allergens was recommended to us, as kids w one allergy are at risk of another. 2. I’m a pediatrician, so ymmv, but I’d happily hold onto anyone’s kid’s epi/neffy. Tbh I wish they’d stock them in public places. Especially w how shelf stable neffy is! 3. For my kids, who have been tolerized to all their allergies, I still keep an epi pen on hand at school, at home, and grandparents houses. If I’m dropping off, I’m either nearby or know the host well enough to slip them their emergency bag (oral meds, epi). My kids are young, so for now drop off dates are rare and have mostly been w kids on our block. [/quote]
