Today Megan is starting peanut desensitization. Megan is severely allergic to peanuts as well as tree nuts. I am excited about this journey as we work our way towards making peanut not a potentially deadly food for Megan anymore. I am so grateful to Dr. Wasserman and his staff for their work in food desensitization. http://dallasallergy.net/
Angela the PA examining Megan before she starts her peanut desensitization.
Megan being silly.
Megan's first peanut dose of the day. She starts out with 1ml of a 2.5mcg/ml solution.
Today if all goes well Megan will have a total of 25 doses of peanut solution. Her first dose is 1ml of a 2.5mcg/ml solution and her last dose will be 6ml of 2.5mg/ml solution.
Megan successfully completed the whole first day of desensitization without any reactions!!!!!! Tomorrow she will start her twice a day dosing.
