Just a quick update on my little princess Atopy Patch testing. After the results of the Wheat and Corn we decided to leave few days between as it seems where the patches were have completely disappeared as expected , although she has seemed to have sore ears , don't directly know this time round if it has a connection with her active immune system after the tests , but taking the time to wait till seems better for her. When she has had foods via mouth she has ended up with sore ears as one of the results.
Brings me to let you know that our youngest son had constant ear infections pretty much from birth till 12 mth's old , and each time it was diagnosed severe to end up having Antibiotics nearly every time , not only did he have ear infection and then got given Antibiotics he then went on to react to the ingredients in the antibiotics which in turn caused the opposite ear to flare up. Wasn't until we came across our awesome doctor that we have now that she said oh my goodness we need to write you a urgent referral to a Pead Allergist being at the time was then the first time we met Dr Pete Smith. Who in their right mind let alone all the previous times given antibiotics by doctors would you pick up it was related to food allergy as well as Tonsilitis ( oh and also told overtime that we were going to have to book him in to get grommets and have anoids etc done as well )
We got a rushed in urgent appointment with Dr Pete Smith ( keep in mind he had a 18 month to 2 year waiting list ) to walk away the day after his first birthday with a Epipen and told to avoid Dairy , Egg , Nut , Soy , Wheat wow what a huge life changing experience and journey ahead that was about to begin from that moment , and guess what no more ear infections.
So i suppose the moral of this blog was most doctors treat what is in front of them and don't look for the cause , as a mum or parent we need to be so switched on and aware as no one knows our children as well as we do ( each doctors visits i would say no we aren't getting grommets as there is a reason for this to be so often , also knowing that some children have a lot of scar tissue from having grommets and some fall out and need them done more then once). Learn to be confident in you intuition with what is happening with your children , as 99% of the time you will be correct , each time you find out you are right you will gain confidence in your internal guidance that you have.
Wishing you all a most wonderful week ahead and practice being in tune with your own intuition , you may surprise yourself , speak up to your doctors and don't always trust what they have to say ( as i have found and was told by another doctor "that they learn the theory but we are the ones living this everyday" and will share that exact moment that was said to me in another blog you will be surprised ).
