Disclaimer: I am a huge fan of Dr. Xiu-Min Li and Henry Ehrlich in addition to gratefulness for the Anaphylactic Allergy Podcast for raising awareness. I was not paid to discuss this topic, the video or to mention Henry’s book (but I am sure he is pleased). Actually, all three aforementioned don’t know I’m blogging about this video today!

Food Allergy Awareness Month: Post a Tribute
One of the hardest things I find about managing both life threatening food allergies and asthma is talking to others.

My 20-month-old daughter (she is now 17, PA and TA) reacted to peanut within a second of it touching the inside of her mouth, screaming and swelling. I immediately swept her mouth with my finger, wiped it out with a paper towel, and gave her a lot of Benadryl then called the doctor and spent several hours watching her. When she was tested at 2 years of age for food allergies, we were told we were extremely fortunate the Benadryl alone worked. I realize the mouth and saliva are part of the digestive process, but it really does not seem like digestive microbe balance would play into my daughter’s food allergies, since her reaction was so swift.
