allergy tests Re: Re: Re:looking for support for son with Aspergers

Thank you for pointing this out, you are absolutely correct, food

allergies are not the same as intolerance, or the body's inability to

break down certain proteins in foods. My son gets aggressive on

dairy as well, and he did not test allergic to dairy or wheat, yet

wheat is responsible for his seizures, rashes and leaky gut.

hmmm. when i was allergy tested, i was hospitalized, a huge board with needles

was put on my back - had to have had at least 100 pricks. then from those

reactions the put smaller boards on my legs and from those individual pricks on

my arms. they tested for food and environmental allergens.

but i don't think the first allergy test for the grandchild was a waste of

time. at least you know that the foods tested are not allergens. this can be

huge especially if they tested for shellfish or peanuts, etc. both items, among

others, known to kill people from allergic reaction. at least with an

intolerance you are able to recognize and remove in the future.

i would also ad, was ice cream the only thing the grandchild ate the day

before the bad behavior? there may indeed be a dairy intolerance but there

could have been something else that triggered the bad behavior.
