Read this article today. It's a great one to spread awareness. I find it interesting that the doctor who was interviewed came from the NIH since there are no funds going to Eosinophilic diseases from the NIH but hopefully that's a good sign. This article comes from the Allergy Mom's site which is one of my favorite.

School called...again
Kaylin was in the office again today complaining of "spitting up" which is basically reflux and sometimes a little food along with it.
After thinking about what she ate yesterday, it looks like we screwed up last night and the Arby's sandwich she had last night for dinner had milk in the bun. :( Lesson learned.....again, check and recheck everything!
She also snuck a few bites of cheese bread this weekend. Hmmmmm. We're learning just how little effects her.

More Wheezing
Kaylin's school called yesterday and she wanted to come home since she was wheezing so bad. We started the nebulizer with Albuterol and scheduled an appt. for this morning with the allergist. The allergist agreed with us thinking the wheezing was triggered by allergies and started her on Nasicort for the allergies and we can continue doing the nebulizer as she needs it. If the asthma symptoms continue, the next step normally would be a preventative cortico-steroid like Flovent. The problem is, she's already on a medication like this in swallowed form for her EE. The last thing we want to do is add more. Hopefully it's just seasonal allergies and getting that under control will solve the problem. The current fires going on in So Cal and the super hot dry weather aren't helping!

August...
has been interesting.
Kaylin has had wheezing off and on which we can't figure out.
Her Aunt decided to feed her Whoppers (AKA Malted Milk Balls covered in Chocolate @@) without telling us. After 4 days of reflux, spitting up food, actually throwing up, a little wheezing and waking up night after night, we were stumped. A few days later, we heard through the grapevine she was given Whoppers, obviously containing milk. I can't even explain the frustration with that situation.
She went to a party with family in San Diego this last weekend which has resulted in allergy symptoms and bad wheezing the last four days and nights. She spent the entire first night coughing. This wheezing thing is new.
Last August was rough for her too with reflux symptoms but she also started school and got a new baby brother. We're still suspicious of enivironmental allergies though. The trips to San Diego to see family with inside dogs seem to be followed by a few days of stuffiness and reflux.
