Allergy Testing

Mr K has had a pink eye for months. But not pink eye! There was no matting or any other symptoms to suggest pink eye, but his eye would not clear up so I took him to the dr. They tried 2 different eye drops to try and get it to clear, but they didn't work. They wanted to send us to an eye dr to see if there was a different med that would be better, but I asked to have allergy testing done first. Allergies are in our family and it has been that time of year.

So Mr K got to endure allergy testing!

Turns out the poor kid is allergic to grass! He has to do a nasal spray (that might actually help with his constant, horrible nose bleeds and huge boogers) and eye drops if he is going to be outside a lot. He also cannot have the dog sleep in his room anymore (during the warmer months) and we have to keep his window shut. This last one is hard because, even though he is only 7, he smells like a grown man. I don't understand it, his room just has this odor despite being clean and all the laundry done!

Anyways. He has taken this like a champ and likes to tell anyone and everyone that he is allergic to grass :)
