My 5.5 yr old son, with a mito disease had his Ige's come back 4 times higher then normal. we decided to rather then test from a normal standpoint since he defies everything normal( all the family does, long story) and it doenst appear that he is allergic to anything envirnmental in nature i.e. cats, dog, trees etc...Im leaning towards food...or things out of the ordinary. One known thing he had a narly reaction to as an infant was his pertussis vaccine. twice.

so...he is a large bread and mac and cheese conniseur. can ya'll enlighten me on the aBC's of gluten and food allergies? I need the idiots guide to what and how they need to test. My ped is going to order the test, and refer to the specialty center here in our state to save time! TIA! Alicia
