Food Allergies






Where do I start Jr has several food allergies. At 4 weeks old he was placed on Similac Alimentum Formula and will continue on it till he is at least 3 years old. The food allergies he has been diagnosed with are Beef,Wheat,Oats,Bananas and Diary. He is on a Gluten Free Veggie and Fruit Diet with his formula.


Then tonight as he was eating some Peas he broke out in hives from his head to his toes. I guess like they say an allergy can start at anytime because he has eaten Peas several times before so now we can add Peas to the list.


I will be posting pictures so y'all can see my poor little guys reaction.

Also today I received my test results from my Food Allergy testing and just like I have been suspecting I have a few Food Allergies as well. They are SoyBeans,Beef and Peanuts. I have been wondering about Peanuts for over 20 years because whenever I eat anything with Peanuts my throat starts to clog and have asked several Allergists in the past to test me and they never wanted to test me for Food Allergies. So at the age of 37 I have to change the way I eat again. It going to be a challenge for sure.


Ya know being a Diabetic and dealing with Jr's Allergies and knowing how to read labels.I shouldn't be worried but I am because now I have to be more strict even more about what I buy.


Of the 3 allergies I'm most worried at Peanuts especially since now I have to carry an Epi-pen because I never know how bad a reaction is going to be.

A Military Wife's Prayer Author Unknown

Give me greatness of heart to see,The difference between duty and his love for me.
Give me understanding so that I may know,When duty calls him, he must go.
Give me a task to do each day,To fill the time while he is away.
When he's in a foreign land,Keep him safe in your loving hand.
And Lord, when duty is in the field,Please protect him and be his shield.
And Lord, when deployment is so long,Please stay with me and keep me strong.
