At least he is not allergic to chicken

Well, I think we finally know what is wrong with baby D. About four months ago they diagnosed him with Eosinophilic Esophagitis. Eosinophilic esophagitis is an inflammatory condition in which the wall of the esophagus becomes filled with large numbers of eosinophils. Which is triggered by allergies. So we met with an allergist last week and had him tested. Drum roll please..... Beef, Milk, Peas, Peanuts, Rice and Dogs. I am looking on the bright side and being thankful that Wheat is not part of the group. I can deal with all of those. But wheat would be tricky.

We have already seen some improvement. He has only vomited twice this week! My carpet is very happy.
