blue and swollen lips when eating

[Anonymous]

my stepson has “moved up” in his rehab program and is being allowed to come down and visit us for the weekend. he is going to pick up his son and bring him with him also. he called me a little while ago and told me that he wants me to watch him when he eats, because he says that when he eats his lips turn blue and swell up. he was wondering if he should have him tested for celiac. i think this sounds more like a food allergy.

he also said that he seems to be behind in his speech. he will turn 5 in may.

what do you all think?

the first thing I thought was some sort of food allergy/anaphalaxis. I did not get a chance to read Lauren’s article..but it sounds about right! I’d def tell him to stop giving the child the top 10 allergen foods for now, have him allergy tested and maybe celiac tested, esp with the family history there! HUGS!
