Immune testing?

My son just turned 6 and for the first time has been able to tell me that he

doesn't feel right or he feels " really weird inside " . I think this is great

he can verbalize this, but he can't narrow it down any more than that. Once

he told me he feels weird all over inside and another time he swept his hand

around his body and told me he feels funny all over. This has happened

about 5+ times over the last 1-2 week period - once during the middle of the

night - and he's normally a good sleeper.

Strangely enough he doesn't have any GI issues going on. His OT needs have

increased as well as behavior and frustration issues. He does have some

seasonal allergy issues going on and he is taking Zyrtec, Nasonex, and

Pulmicort breathing treatment once a day. The Zyrtec has been ongoing. The

nasonex and pulmicort we started a few weeks ago due to a nasty virus that

brought on asthma. His allergy symptoms have greatly improved. Could it be

that these allergy meds are suppressing his immune reaction that is making

him feel " weird " ?

I already have the paperwork from his primary and allergy/pulmonary

specialist to get blood drawn for CBC, chem panel and celiac screen (his

pulmonary specialist wants to run this one). He's GFCFSF and corn free,

peanut free...

I believe his primary pediatrician will run additional tests if I ask, but

I'm not sure which ones to ask for. I'm thinking an Immune Panel from

Immunosciences - but which one? Any suggestions? I can't contact his DAN

doctor right now but I don't want to wait to get the testing done.

Thanks for any help.
