A word on the hives

We finally have some answers on Megan's hives...Last week at her 3 year check up I had her pediatrician test her for food allergies and, unfortunately, her test came back positive for eggs. We also saw a dermatologist today and he diagnosed her hives as Chronic Urticaria. Both the allergy and the Urticaria and things she will outgrow, hopefully and God willing, but for now I am doing lots of research and working on how and what to restrict from her diet to help her "itchiness". Poor little thing. She's a real trooper though and other than the chronic itching she seems to be doing okay and she hasn't had any major flare ups this week. Keep us all in your prayers!
