PD phoned and when I told him about the reaction Rachel had, he suggested that we let his collegue do an allergy test on her a week later. I was thinking, if she's allergic, she is allergic, the test only further confirms it right? I shared this notion with him, he agreed and said "ya, it's not really necessary", ......
I asked if I should give this egg protein test again and he said that, from the reaction she's got, it's pretty certain that she's indeed allergic but if I still wanna give the test, do it 2 weeks later and give only bit by bit the next time round. He's also suggested for her MMRV immunisation to be postponed to 1-2 months later and in the meantime, I should lay off fish and egg white for Rachel's meals...
Before the PD had returned my call, I've gone to the room and checked on Rachel and noted that she's poo-ed in her sleep! I've also informed the PD on this to let him know how bad the situation is but personally, I felt relieved in a way 'cos I know that it's good for her to purge the allergy reacting histamine(not sure if this is e correct way to describe it) out of her body.
I hope this allergy would not stay with her for long(like her jie jie - I'm not sure if it's the yolk or white jie jie's allergic to. A few days ago, she's tried the egg I prepared for Rachel but both yolk and white at the same time. mayb I shld get her to test them separately too one day) and she'd also be ok after the MMR jab...*praying hard*
