After SEVERAL visits to the doctors, a few meetings with a nutritionist, and a lot of advise from a wonderful old friend, we FINALLY were able to get an appointment with the allergy doctor.
Praise God!
After just minutes talking to the Allergist and showing him pictures of Roe's strange flare-up's, we were told hat Roe had VERY SERIOUS food allergies.
He was tested immediately and we were prescribed the epipen.
Roe has allergies which will trigger anaphylactic shock if he eats or comes in contact with Milk (all dairy), eggs, and soy.
We have also been advised to stay away from peanuts, tree nuts, and shellfish for two years.
This is going to be a huge adjustment for a family who loves cheese, processed foods (which almost always contain soy), and desert.

But, we are so happy to know what is wrong and little Roe Roe seems so much happier now!
Prayers still welcomed!
