[quote=Anonymous][quote]As an allergy parent, I’m kind of skeptical your child could have a “severe allergy” you are just discovering in ES.[/quote] NP. Sorry, just have to add to this comment because it is so wrong. Severe allergies can develop at any time. My daughter had a "mild" allergy to peanuts and tree nuts and would get hives and an itchy throat with exposure. So we avoided them but were not too concerned. Then, when she was 8, she ate candy that was cross contaminated with hazelnuts -- did not even contain hazelnuts, was just processed on shared lines (and incidentally was labeled on the front as "peanut and nut free"). She went into anaphylaxis and had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance. I developed a shellfish allergy as a teenager after years of eating it. Same with penicillin, which I discovered in college when I went into anaphylaxis and almost died. So you are absolutely, 100 percent wrong.[/quote]
