    Spunky's Allergies
    After an appointment with an allergist, we have discovered that
    Spunky is allergic to chocolate    .

    As the nurse said, “that’s not fair!  No girl should be allergic to chocolate!”
    But Spunky is.

    It is also very likely that she is lactose intolerant, so for the next four weeks, she is on a strict dairy-free diet.  If during that time, she does not have any of her previous symptoms, then that will ascertain that she is lactose intolerant.  However, if she continues to have symptoms, the problem may be in her GI tract.  We will continue to monitor her and, hopefully, this one visit to the allergist will have answered our questions once and for all.
