be pleased, its just I am worried about what will happen if the
allergy has not gone away after all and the skin tests were
wrong. Also DH will be taking him as I have to work( and I won't
be able to see what is happening and he is so useless at
explaining afterwards) Please share your experiences of food
challenges and reassure me  ukey Mon 04-Feb-13 21:32:44  what
food will they be challenging?  I don't have any personal
experience of food challenge, tho from what I have read its a
long day, as they will introduce the food very gradually.
