Leo was a champ at the allergist. He was tested for 27 different allergens. This consisted of a grid on his back where they would poke him to see if he was allergic to something specific. Turns out he is only allergic to peanuts........which we knew. We also had to get his sinuses X-rayed. What a nightmare that was. Turns out Leo's sinuses were so clogged that they couldn't even see air on the x-ray. After 14 days of antibiotics he was cleared. He even stopped puking so I do believe that him being clogged is what is causing that.
Although Leo had a sinus infection we didn't find anything that would cause reoccurring ear infections so off we went to the ENT. One look in his ears and it determined that he needed tubes. He was already getting the start of yet another ear infection. He did horrible on his hearing test too, so the tubes should help him hear better, therefore help his speech. On top of the tubes he will be getting his adenoids out as they can be a cause of his ear infections and will help with his stuffiness. I really hope this works as I can't deal with him puking whenever he gets a cold (which is all the time).
So on December 7, 2012 Leo will have his surgery. I am nervous, but know it is an easy surgery, so he should be just fine. I am hoping this will work miracles, but I may be putting too much on it. We'll see though!
Here is a picture from his allergy test. He didn't even cry!
