Allergist

Now that Annie is 1, we were hoping to be able to run more tests to get a better sense of what has been leading to all the respiratory issues. We took Annie in to be allergy tested and it turns out that is not the case. It was actually a little disappointing bc that would have given us a bit more of a definition and an action plan. We are now left to thinking she is still working through having under-developed lungs. The nagging questions are when this will resolve itself and if there are alternative ways that can help her until her lungs get stronger. So, we will hang tough and keep at it. The wonderful news is that she is just doing wonderfully now and we have been able to remove some of the drugs she is on. Our greatest hope is that she can enjoy the summer without daily meds for breathing. We'll bulk back up again when fall hits but, for now, we are enjoying this honeymoon period!
