On Monday, January 20th we took Nolan in to an allergist to get him tested for a tree nut allergy. He has broken out in hives when he has eaten or even touched both walnuts and pecans. He is definitely allergic to those two nuts from the test they performed on his arm as well as hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, and pistachios. We now have to have an Epi-Pen on hand just in case he accidentally has exposure to any of these tree nuts again.
I am hopeful that he will eventually outgrow his allergy but at least we have a plan in place now!
