Great visit!

Mason was updosed to 500mg! That's almost an entire Goldfish or Cheese It. He says he is so excited. We are going to the beach in 2 weeks so won't return for an appointment for 4 weeks
 I will be updosing him on our own at home by 75mg to 100mg each week until then.
While we were there, I asked about having Mason skin-tested (and bloodwork done) in August to check enviro allergies. We have been going for shots since he was 4. We are now at the end of the road for 5 year treatment but I would prefer not to go back to our previous allergist. I want to just keep everything with Dr. Agrawal here. So they assured me he would do it all whenever we wanted. Mason should only have 1 enviro shot left. Anyway...stay tuned till next time. I'll report anything newsworthy over these next 4 weeks!

4 months in!

We had our appointment for updosing on Wednesday and it went great! We are now up to 325mg of wheat. Also we decided to switch to Cheese-Its for something new and to keep it interesting. Plus, it's a good idea to introduce the body to different sources of wheat so it doesnt get used to just the one item. Turns out they are easier for me to measure out for Mason too and they taste better than Goldfish. We may do pretzels next. He tolerated the dose just fine and did well with the next dose at home the next day. Back to the dr in 2 weeks!
