Bryan's Allergy Test

So if you haven't heard Bryan tried once again to get out of work!!!
This time it was with a Banana.... who knew that a simple banana could be so deadly!
Anyways about 2 weeks ago Bryan ate a banana at work and started having a BAD allergic reaction to it! He was then sent to the hospital by ambulance and needless to say he scared all of us half to death!!!

So, after all of this Bryan had to go in for a Allergy test this last Friday. Needless to say he is allergic to BANANAS, Apples, Carrots, Melons.... Also Dust, Pollen, Grass and Cats. Even DOGS!!!! (the doctor told us that we need to look into making them outside dogs) and to add the final topping he has Asthma!!!! The doctor told us that he hadn't seen someone with this bad of allergies in a long time.

Oh and just to add more fun stuff when I looked up Banana Allergies on Webmd it also told me that we need to be careful of Latex, Avocados, melons, and kiwis....I think Bryan's falling apart!!! LOL

So now after these tests Bryan will have to go back again to get tested for allergies to bugs too. He now has to have allergy shots for the next 6 months, and quite a process.


Anyways I managed to take some pictures of his test, sorry they're not the best i only had my cell phone.

This is right after they started the test...

This is after about 5 minutes

Bryan trying not to scratch... if he did, they would've had to do the test all over again... (10 minutes into it)

After the test is done.... looks painful huh???

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!! I have never seen anyhting like this!! Poor guy!!! Allergies are the worst from what I have seen! My sons and my husband have them too but not this bad. I have to get my little one tested for food allergies and I have been postponing it forever! After seeing these pictures I think it will take even longer!! lol!!! But I think they said it would take a simple blood test though. Ajay has eczema and some of it the doctor thinks is triggered by food allergies! Anyway, hang in there Bryan!! Oh and you might as well just stop eating!!! lol!!!
