Follow Up Results are IN

We finally got our follow up Rast/Immunocap blood test results, and we are still avoiding all eggs, milk, and nuts. DS numbers came down slightly for milk, but still too high to try to challenge, and it was discovered that he is now at a very high level for walnuts. Peanuts was not as high, but walnuts was at a 5 or 6. I was floored, because I never ate walnuts. I hate them, and I don't keep them in the house. So, it just seemed so random that he would test so highly for them. Plus, after decorating the house with a fresh tree and garland, ds started rubbing his eyes. We thought it was pink eye, nope, he is allergic to the tree and fresh pine garland. So, we had to take it down. No christmas fresh pine smell in the house for us. I gave him antihistimine eye drops and zyrtec and he seems fine now, but I was so confused, because he wasn't bothered last year nor the year before when he was a newborn.  So, the journey continues. Still avoiding and hanging in there. Has any one's LO eliminated an allergy lately? I need some good news, because I am a little bummed.
