As an allergy sufferer I was convinced that my 12 month old daughter had allergies as she had a "cold" for 6 months (12-18 mos of age). I wanted to have her allergy tested as I was concerned that she might be allergic to the family dog--her pediatrician blew me off and would not refer for testing until she was 3. At 18 mos. I went over his head and had the testing done--she was allergic to 4 things on the skin test--2 of which were easily controlled (dust mites). After covering her mattress, taking down her curtains and taking stuffed animals out of her room she was a new kid. Needless to say, we have a new pediatrician.
