The allergist office called with the results of Abby's blood work from Tuesday. We were hoping for the miracle decline in numbers but unfortunately not the case.
Last year her numbers were 18 for milk and 21 for egg. This year she was 12 for milk and 22 for eggs. It is good that she is trending down for milk but they had hoped to see more of a decline. She needs to be below 2.5 for milk and below 1.5 for egg in order to do a food challenge.
So we still have a ways to go if she is going to out grow the allergy. This means that we have another year of strict avoidance. At least we've gotten really good at no milk, no eggs and no blueberries in our house. :D
