Abdominal Ultrasound

[Anonymous]

My son’s pedi recommended an abdominal ultrasound. We have it scheduled on Monday. I honestly not 100% sure why but she said it was the least invasive test. I am assuming she just wants to make sure his belly is ok…

Quick question though….is there an allergy test that they could preform to check for soy and other allergens. He is 5 weeks…I am off dairy and he isn’t any better so instead of eliminating a ton of stuff and never knowing 100% if a certain food was a culprit…wouldn’t it be easier to do an allergy test? (hope that makes sense! It was a long night)

no easy answers for allergies/intolerances, I’m afraid…

you pretty much have to do trial & error- eliminate, add back, etc…

if any of the below words are underlined blue & are not hyperlinks, I appologize in advance!

allergy testing isn’t accurate until at least 12 months old usually 18 months.. probably more of an intolerance issue than a true allergy.
