Allergies

Whelp, we got back from the allergist today and it looks like Charlie is allergic to almost everything known to man.


Not really, but I'm really struggling trying to think of what I'm going to make for dinner. This is a list of foods that need to be completely eliminated from his diet for the next 3 months:

• Rice
• Chicken
• Tomatoes
• Chocolate (& cola drinks)
• Milk and all milk products (cheese, yogurt, ice cream)
• Yeast (all breads, tortillas etc.)
• Strawberries
• Green beans (one of the few vegetables he used to eat)
• Mushrooms and
• Cinnamon

After 3 months, we can gradually start to add one food back at a time and see how he responds. He's also very allergic to grass, weeds and trees and so CJ and I will start giving him shots at home every 3 days. And he needs to take Zyrtec daily.

I know I could make ham and potatoes for him and he could eat a taco (without cheese - the Dr. said corn tortillas are okay occasionally) and he can eat pasta or noodles but no sauce or butter. If you have any great ideas or recipes, please pass them along. We're gonna need all the help we can get!
