Update Long Overdue....
Megan continues to eat peanuts on a daily basis. For quite some time Megan has not tolerated the whole maintenance dose. She eats 3-4 peanuts a day. If she eats more peanuts she tends to get a bit nauseated and her throat gets itchy for a short time. She HAS NOT had any anaphylactic issues, just minor issues that resolve on their own. Megan still really dislikes peanuts so it does not bother her that she cannot tolerate a lot of peanut. From time to time she will eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without issue. Since Megan has other nut allergies she is limited in the peanut area due to cross contamination issues. We stick with peanuts in the shells and tree nut free peanut butter.
