Now we know

I really, really thought Rylie had outgrown her allergies. Plus, the doctor told us that with her new immune system there was a good chance she would not have the same allergies. Well, we now know that she is not allergic to eggs, milk, and dogs like she used to be. But she is allergic to peanuts. :( It's funny that this bothers me so much after all we've been through. This is so minor, right? But I really don't like how careful we are going to have to be with Rylie around peanuts and all nuts. She had her second bite of peanut butter yesterday, and within two minutes her face was covered in a rash. Within five minutes, she had white bumps all over her eyelids. She was so itchy. I felt terrible for her. After a big dose of Benadryl, the rash went away, but it confirmed that Rylie is in fact very allergic to peanuts. I have read up on the allergy, and everything I read says that after each exposure to peanuts, the reaction can worsen. I'm not sure what precautions the allergy doctor will want to take with Rylie, but we will need to make that appointment soon. Darn! I still hold on to hope that she will grow out of this, but the chances are a lot less with peanuts. Boo! Have I told you how disappointed I am about this? Like I said, it is very minor, but I'm so sorry for her. Peanuts are tasty.
