We took Emily to her allergist this morning to determine if she is, in fact, allergic to dyes. The answer in short - Yes. She has an allergic reaction, though pretty mild, to anything with artificial dyes - icings, Popsicle, grape juice... But usually her reaction have been pretty mild with just some blotchy rashes on her face or neck. However, the first time we gave her grape juice (mind you, we heavily dilute juice...so she had about 1/2 inch with the rest water), she broke out in hives. The doctor thinks it is likely she could outgrow this allergy and we hope so. However, we now have an epi-pen, just in case she were to have more concentration of red or yellow dyes and have a more severe reaction. But in the grand scheme of things, I am blessed it is something as mild as artificial dyes...these are generally pretty easily to avoid. So thankful the allergy isn't in more common foods.
