allergy??
My daughter would complain of nausea and vomit only one time but never really appeared "sick", no fever, etc. This started when she was a toddler and at that time, I connected it to when she would eat eggs. Over the years, she would eat eggs but just small servings as they are not really a favorite food, and they didn't seem to bother her. She is 16 now and recently, she spent the night at a friend's house and the dad fixed a big breakfast and gave her a "plateful" of eggs. To be polite, she went ahead and ate them not thinking too much about it because, as I said, she has been eating small portions over the years just fine. That day when she ate the "plateful" she had a stomachache all day long, never threw up, but I still think it was related to the eggs. Other than a stomachache, that is all she would show.
Is there something that your son has started eating in larger quantities than before? Sometimes we can handle a small portion of something but the large portion plays havoc with the allergies.
allergy testing
We tried the Alcat test. Understand traditional medicine does not agree with this blood test, but it helped in our family. My daughter had had heart palpitations since she was a child, and no doctor ever seemed concerned, but they bothered and scared her. The test showed a moderate intolerance to red dye 40, and since she cut it from her diet, no more palpitations! It is pricey in my book, but it has helped us. www.alcat.com
Betcha THAT is an allergy!
Allergy Resources
I have an allergy account of my own and I know what you mean. Those tests/allergens can be tricky. I purchased the Stedman's Dermatology & Immunology Word book and I use it often. It has everything you need!
allergy to muscle? ASR
ASR: Allergy to muscle. (Well, there's a reason not to work out).
Should have been allergy to amoxil. 
I mean the actual word ALLERGY not the med itself

For the nickel allergy, you can paint
the metal with clear nail polish. I do that where my watch sits against my skin - one of my MDs suggested it.
I have very mild eczema, and my skin likes the new Ivory soap that has aloe vera in it.
Asthma Allergy specialty
I am working as an IC for a asthma/allergy specialist who has recently went into private practice. In the 10 months that I have worked for her she has changed the format of her PE, new patient, D/C, well all of her forms, several times. I have tried to explain to her that it is her practice and I will transcribe whatever information she feels is necessary to have in the permanent record (she does not do dictation, I transcribe from written report). Can anyone give me an example of final transcription for an asthma/allergy specialist, and possibly an example of the forms used? I would like to present these to her to compare so she can feel comfortable with what she is transcribing for the final record. I would really appreciate any help I could get with this. This is my first job and I want to keep this doctor satisified......Thanks!
Opinions please for Allergy work
I have the opportunity to pick up some additional work for an Allergy/Asthma Clinic. I have not done allergy/asthma work before. How tough is it and how easy is it to transition into? I have over 10 years experience but mostly in Orthopaedics, Radiology, Family Practice, OB/GYN, and ERs. Also, for this account I would need to pick up and drop off the work. Do you think I could ask for $3.00 a page? All opinions appreciated. THANKS GUYS!
Allergy Immunology and Rheumatology?

Allergy tests reference?
Does anyone know of any good online reference I can use to look up allergy tests? Specifically looking for something where I can look up different types of weed, grass, tree pollens that may be tested with prick test or intradermal tests.
Anyone know a good web site for allergy testing? Thank you! nm
also, good chance its allergy related due to
season and naproxen not working. For headaches like that, I try over-the-counter Sudafed and/or Benadryl at night. I prefer Zyrtec-D, but if I'm out, I use OTC products as above. Often, one has to identify the source of the headache in order to get the right med. Headaches are very complex entities! Hope you feel better. Personally, I think headaches are the worse sort of pain, even compared to fibromyalgia, as I have that, too! Feel better.
I have one PA with a chronic allergy or sinus problem....
which is, of course, not his fault, but makes him very hard to understand. He has a very deep voice and likes to raise and lower the volume at random. And at least every other sentence, he says "Excuse me," like he made a mistake, but then just repeats what he said and keeps on going. He also likes to say, "Delete." a lot. I think he is even the one who dropped a "F" bomb on me one day.
Allergy/Asthma Clinic Work
I am hoping someone can give me some insight on Allergy/Asthma Clinic work. How difficult is it and is it something that can be transitioned into easily? I have the opportunity to pick up some work but I've not done any Allergy/Asthma Clinic work. My experience has mostly been in Radiology/Ortho work but I have also done OB/GYN, Family Practice and ER reports. Thanks!
Mine are so bad I get Kenalog injections throughout allergy season. Really does the trick for your e
