Avery's allergy appointment


Avery had her allergy appt that she goes to twice a year. We were really hoping that she could start allergy shots this year, so that she could mabye get some relief and be able to go outside without having an asthma attack. No such luck this year. She had to pass the test of doing a peak flow meter successfully because they have to do that before and after shots to check breathing, and she couldn't do it, so they decided she needs to wait. They did retest her for all the things that she was tested for when she was 3 that at that time she was not allergic too, and sure enough every one except for 2 immediately got a hive, showing that she is allergic to it. So let's see most all trees, grass, ragweed, dustmites, molds, cats, and dogs (which Trey is not happy about at all). I may have left some out, but you get the picture... She did really good at the dr but was pretty miserable for a little while because her back was covered in hives. They have to wait a little while so they can measure the hive and then they finally gave her some calamine lotion all over her back and she was much better!
