Absolutely -that is what out allergist told me, they tested negative on

everything they can test for with skin test, but there are alot of

substances they don't have skin test for (artifical ingridients) and the

reason we tried elimination diet to determine the cause - my boys sinus

issues have cleared removing wheat/yeast/all artificials so one of those

things was the cause, we are now in challenge phase determining which

things give what symptoms...

Bingo! We did the allergy test thing too when my son was 4.....what

they found was of little help. We also did an elimination diet and found

potatoes was what was causing all of his sinus issues!
