Allergies Update

Savannah did great at testing today. They stuck her ten times to test for different things, and she never even flinched! :) They made some adjustments to her medications and her testing turned out well. Her daddy was slightly disappointed that she was not allergic to Sasha, though.

She does have severe allergic reactions to insect bites, but they appear to be localized, so that is a good thing! They gave us a medicine to give her and a prescription cream to put on her if she gets bit again soon. And every time she goes outside, she has to wear bug spray! I guess she is just too sweet. :)

We opted not to test for an allergic reaction to a bee sting today because the testing would involve 21 needles. We thought we would take our chances with the bee one day instead. But other than that, she seems to be juuuust fine. In fact, the doctor said out of all of the children she has tested, that was the best almost two-year-old ever.

Hmm, I'm not sure about all of that, but we'll take it!

And, by the way, she weighed a whopping 26.3 pounds, and was 34.5 inches tall. She also informed the doctor that she was (almost) two and that she had a book about Abby Cadabby, and when asked about her colors, they were all pink, of course. Thanks for that info, chatterbox.
