Mommy, grandma Christensen and I went over to Dr. Petty's office for my allergy test in Idaho Falls. For a scratch test they rate:1+ (Mild)
2+ (Moderate)
3+ (Severe)
4+ (Very severe)
What are my most severe?
Eggs; including anything made from an egg. Do you realize how many things are made up with eggs? Check some labels and you'd be suprised. (Egg white 4+, egg yolk 3+)
Peanuts (which mommy never gave me anyways) (4+)
Strawberries and Watermelon (I didn't get tested for these because the allergic reaction was strong without having to test these yummy fruits. I'll miss you watermelon!! (These are probably both 4+.)
Cute Cats (4+)
Yucky tobacco. Thank heavens I'm not around that! (4+)
Kochia Weeds (4+)
Lamb's Quarter (4+)
Pigweed, Rough/Redroot (4+)
Russian Thistle (4+)
I received 2+ in the following moderate allergens:
- alternaria (decaying plants)
- feather mix
- peas
- walnuts
I received 1+ in the following mild allergens:
- helminthosporium (grasses and grains)
- grain mill dust
- house dust
- dog dander/hair
- oranges
- potatoes
- soybean
I also received very mild 1/2+ in the following:
- oats
- wheat
It's a good thing some of those things aren't higher or I'd starve! Dr. Petty said not to worry too much about the 1+ and 2+ allergies right now so I still get to eat or be around them. Yea! I can still play with granma's doggies Rowdy and Dulce!!
