"I don't wanna tell you"

We are still waiting (3 weeks now) for the blood test results. I am getting very frustrated and think I will just show up in the officeMonday and demand them. I can't keep wondering if what I am feeding Tanner is making him feel sick. He has been behaving out of charecter lately. This morning I asked him to trow away his diaper and he had a breakdown. He was laying on the floor next to the trash screaming "I don't want to". He has also been begging me to take him to the potty and stay in there with him (he usually is a very private kinda kid). He does not want anyone looking at him and actually got into a fight, I mean hitting and pushing, with a kid (he did not know)the other day because he looked at him. He has not been eating and is not drinking his formula. I know some of this is him just being 3 but I just knew something was not right with him.

So this morning I sat him down and asked what was going on with him. He informed me he feels yukky and his tummy hurts a lot. I asked him where and went to touch his stomach and he yelled "don't touch my tummy" I told Tanner "you need to tell me when you don't feel good of feel tired so that I can help you to fell better" He says he "I don't want to tell you, I wanna play."

I am just so sick of this disease and just want my little boy to feel better! I also don't want him to not tell me when he does not feel good.

Allegy Testing

these are egg, milk, wheat, soy and peanut the

largest are egg white, egg yolk and peanut

Tanner went to the allergist yesterday to get allergy tested. He had the Scratch test done. Basically a scratch test is one form of a skin test for allergies. A small drop of a possible allergen is placed on the skin. A tiny scratch is then made in the surface of the skin. After 10 minutes the spots are measured to determine how allergic you are. We also have to get a rast test done (blood test). If Tanner is negative on the skin test and the blood test then he is allowed to try that food.

The bad news is that Tanner tested very positive (allergic) to some foods he has been eating. These are all food that he had previously scoped clean on and tested negative to on allergy test (scratch and blood).

The good news is Tanner tested negative to Apple, green bean, broccoli, cantaloupe, grape, orange, peach, pear and rice. The allergist thinks that we should try going with formula and these few foods that he tested negative to and then after 3 months scope. If the results are still not good then we can go formula only. We just have to pray that his blood work comes back negative to all or most of these foods for this plan to work.

Once again we need your prayers that he will test negative to some of these foods. I will update once we get results back.
