Well Alex had his allergy testing today. I felt so bad for him, his back is ticklish and so he was laughing his butt off while she was marking the grid on his back, and then she started poking him and he just looked at me like I had betrayed him and starting crying and screaming...ug...you would think with all of the technology we have now there would be an easier way to do this! Anyway the good news is that he is not allergic to anything! They tested him for the most common food allergies, tons of plant allergies, cats, dogs, mold, dust mites, etc and he didn't have a reaction to any of them. The bad news is that we still don't know why he has always been draining/congested since he was 6 months old! The doctor thinks it might be some problem with his sinuses, since the drainage is always yellow or green. She wants us to have an Xray done of his face to look at his sinuses. She also gave me some stuff to try on his eczema, it's this foam stuff called Verdeso, but it seems to be making it worse. She also suggested trying Vanicream Skin Cream so I just started trying that tonight.
