Jarrett's Allergy Tests

I asked my doctor to do blood allergy tests after reading about it on someone elses blog. He had some scratch tests in July and they were all negative. I questioned them because he was supposed to sit still for 20 minutes to give the test a chance. Yea, right. What 3 year old is going to sit still for 20 minutes. Anyway, Jarrett's tests came back negative on all except for 1 that was Equivocal (just barely). Here are the results. <0.05 means it is negative. 0.05 - 0.07 is Equivocal and it keeps going up from there. He is borderline allergic to corn. I don't think there is any danger of having a reaction because it is borderline and he doesn't eat corn.

Milk <0.05
Wheat <0.05
Corn 0.05
Peanut <0.05
Soybean <0.05
Pork <0.05
Beef <0.05
Fish/Shell mix <0.05
Egg, Whole <0.05
Chocolate/Cocoa <0.05


Jarrett is doing well in preschool and is going potty more and more each week. He may be potty trained before he heads off to kindergarten, at least I hope.
