As your DS gets closer to age 2, your doc maybe able to prescribe Singulair which is primarily a chewable asthma med(for ages 2-5) that also has had good results for those with allergies. If he is wheezing, the albuterol should help him breath better and hopefully clear up his lungs well enough so that the doc can pinpoint the trigger. I'd definitely see what happens at the next appointment and go from there. HTH!

BTW - Jack did much better with the dairy elimination and I'm leaning towards dairy allergy versus lactose intolerance as he gets hives if he smears ranch dressing on his face. I'll be asking my ped for authorization for him to see the ped allergist also. Oh well....
