Results

After yesterday's puking incident on our way to school I was fed up and wanted answers as to why he just isn't feeling better and why his skin is not clearing up.

I demanded to get in sooner then June 5th. I just couldn't justify waiting that long and after Bridger puking every day for the last week I knew I had to get in sooner. So, thanks to the secretaries at the allergist office and a few key tips to mention (thanks to my ladies) they didn't hesitate and found a cancellation for 10:15am today.

Hurray!

I took the day off, not knowing what to expect. We spent all morning at the doctor's office and walked out feeling confident that we have some answers and a game plan to help Bridger get better.

I opted NOT to do the blood test, because of various reason, so we ended up with the skin test which shined some light on some triggers. Bridger is very allergic to cat hair, cat saliva and he there is a good chance that his atopic dramatise is being triggered by milk and eggs and possible nut in his diet. The doctor prescribe some things to help and we will slowly start to watch his diet and for any triggers that cause him to flare up. Doctor told us to not get all "crazy" and go to the extremes, just to use our judgement and limit it when we can.

Currently the doctor doesn't seem too worried about any asthma since he has not had any wheezing, but we will continue to keep an eye on it.

We made a day out of staying home from school today. We visited daddy's work, we went to the volunteer tea, went to the "soft" grand opening of BabiesRUs to look for a new car seat and we checked out there bathrooms too. Okay now I understand the purpose of these toddler chiars in the restroom.

Daddy treated Bridger to his favorite restaurant.... Flat Bread.

I kid you not, Bridger ate all of his happy hour cheese pizzatte.

He loves, loves loves flat bread.
