Allergies

RJ has had reactions to walnuts for the past two years, but just a few weeks ago he had a pretty bad reaction to pecans. So, the doctor decided it was time for allergy testing. After blood work came back positive for many things, we met with an allergiet to confirm.

RJ was having a great time until the skin test started.

He was so itchy, but managed to not scratch. (Ok, so I was holding his hands and trying to distract him with a video on my phone and taking pictures so he could see his back as he cried.) Results: Allergic to tree nuts and a tutorial on how to use an Epi-Pen. "Blue to the sky, orange to the thigh."
