Results: RAST allergy testing

Auggie had an appointment with his GI doctor last week who thought that despite very slow weight gain, he looked good.  He is still not even on the charts for weight and he is following his curve for length at 9th percentile.  He's a skinny little guy but quite strong!  While we were there he also had some blood drawn for a standard CBC which showed nothing wrong - iron, albumin, hemoglobins and his total blood count looked great.  We also had them do a standard IgE food panel which came up negative. So, now we know that he does not have fast reacting allergies when it comes to the most allergenic foods, but we suspect that he has slow reacting allergies that are not easily diagnosed.  The next step is a meeting with another allergist and careful trial and error with food.  We tried oats and 4 hours later Auggie had mucousy stools with blood threads.  We're trying yogurt tomorrow because although we suspect some sort of dairy allergy, yogurt is often more easily tolerated as it is more easily digested than milk.
