The Adventure Continues...

Agh. It's been another bout of confusing allergy symptoms. We re-introduced grass-fed beef recently. It seemed to be going ok, but then the horrible diapers returned. Like the worst smelling thing you could imagine. Poor little guy. He still manages to keep his sunny personality even when it's obvious that his digestive track is in turmoil. 

We were thinking maybe it was the beef, or possibly a reaction to trace amounts of egg protein in the flu shot he got on Friday. It's so tough to pinpoint the cause when it's a delayed reaction like diarrhea. It's much easier to figure out what causes it when he has hives or even vomiting. He seemed to be getting better, but now it's back. So maybe he's developed an allergy to salmon too. 

I hope this won't delay his tonsil surgery. As anxious as I am about his surgery (even though I know it's very routine), I really don't want it to be delayed. 

Oh the joys of food allergies...
