Lions, and Tigers, and Bears...Oh My!
Not really. But pretty close.
Maddy had a follow up with the pediatric pulmonologist today. He was pleased that she has not been wheezing and is doing a lot better. He told us to continue with the Pulmicort mixed with Foradil, Singulair, and Xopenex when needed.
We went over her bloodwork, and she does in fact have allergies. She's allergic to dairy, peanut, cat dander, grass, and cockroaches. Okay, I expected the peanut, dairy, cat, and grass allergy, but cockroaches!?!?!? I didn't even know you can test for that. Who wants to NOT be allergic to cockroaches?
She gets the cat allergy from my side of the family, grass and dairy from Adam's side of the family. I can't figure out where the peanut allergy comes from.
So all in all, a great visit. We got a lot of answers! Tomorrow is her 9m well visit.

I didn't know people could be allergic to cockroaches. Tennessee is the only place I've seen them and they were scary.
The doctor said it isn't the roaches exactly, it's what they leave behind.
I'm sure JJ can tell you that there are other places that have them. hehehe! Oh, you can just visit the building where my mom used to live. *gags*
