Allergist Appt

Ryan's GI Specialist recommended we see an allergist after finding lymphocytic cells. The lymphocytic cells are normally an inflammation due to an allergy. So, we went to see Dr. Harrison. They did a series of tests on his back and tested for milk proteins, wheat, eggs, legumes, and about 20 additional common allergies I can't recall. We waited 20 minutes and the results were all negative as I suspected would happen. We saw an allergist when he was 2 and found nothing. Dr. Harrison decided he wanted to try another type of test on Ryan called an inter dermal test. This procedure is done by injecting a small amount of whatever is being tested just under the skin. It is a more sensitive test but also has a high level of false positives. Ryan had to endure 9 of these shots on his left arm. He was so brave through it all. Again, we waited 20 minutes. This time the test showed a very small reaction to the milk proteins. The question then is...is this a true answer or a false positive. So, we are to try and eliminate milk from his diet and see if that corrects his reflux. The Dr. said he has seen cases where an allergy causes reflux. Maybe this is the answer for Ryan...
