Dose up time

Yesterday Megan went for her every 7 day dose up. She is now taking 250mg of peanut flour. After this week she will have one more week of peanut flour at 500mg and then we are on to the real deal thing, PEANUTS!!! Megan is very excited about this. She is not too fond of the peanut flour. We mix the flour with Hershey's Syrup. But even with the syrup she always has a "shiver of, this is gross" when she takes it. If all continues to go well Megan will finish her peanut desensitization the beginning of August. It is amazing that in one year she will have completed both egg and peanut desensitization. Truly amazing!!! When Megan was first diagnosed I would never have thought that DESENSITIZATION was a possibility. Actually, I had never even heard of it. I am so very grateful for advancements in medicine and to those few doctors willing to embark in such endeavors despite much of the medical community still not in agreement with food desensitization.
