I just wanted to say thank you for the great replies. I am elated to have a discussion board regarding PNA, I was wondering how many of your children's allergy is a class 3 or higher on the blood work. I was told my son's was the worst possible, yet he is only a class 3??His class does not mean I will do anything differently then if he was a Class 6, I am just curious......

My son is a class 5, I believe. His IgE was 82 the last time we had blood drawn (when he was just over 5). His initial reaction was when he was just over 2 and his bloodwork showed a level of 17.3 then. He's 6 1/2 now (and cute as a button, I might add [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img].

I don't know what "class" my son is...I know he had a 16mm wheal after his last skin test. His RAST showed very low. But, he had a near death ana reaction when he was four. So, try not to get caught up in the numbers...focus on keeping your child safe. The number doesn't necessarily reflect how serious a reaction will be.
You know he's allergic, so proceed in a way to keep him from suffering further reactions.
Welcome, by the way.

Hi
My son is a Class 2. His number is 1.2,but he is still considered anaphylactic. I don't think the numbers really matter because allergic is allergic. I was just reading that Dr. Burks at Duke thinks there will be a cure in @ 5 years. We are hoping.

Hi. My son's RAST was 100+ (I don't know what class this is) but I'm sure it's high.
