We had Darby allergy tested this last week because I have a mother instinct about her and feel like something is going on that needs to be addressed. I have been saying for a while that I am worried she has a citrus intolerance and I just wanted to get it checked out. They tested her for 30 foods and the only one she had a reaction to was lemon. Granted it was a very mild little reaction but it is interesting that that was the one. I have not spoken with the Dr. since but hope to hear from her this week to see what this means.
For those who have never had a "scratch test" the name is a little misleading. It's really a poke test and Darby was a real trooper. The lady doing it said she was being really brave an that it does hurt. The lady stuck her about 32 time and Darby sat there and let her do it. Here is a picture of her little arm afterwards. You can only see 2 rows but there are actually 3 and them some more sticks on the other arm.
