Everything went really well, we decided to test Park for dogs, cats, outside stuff, and of course milk. Everything actually came back negative which we were grateful for. With all of Parkers symptoms the Dr. has asked us to try a STRICT lactose free diet for 1 month to see if we see any changes and also switch from soy milk to lactaid (which is about $1 more than the soy).

Parker and Dr. Parry
We finally took Park to an allergist/asthma/immunologist in Pocatello -
Everything went really well, we decided to test Park for dogs, cats, outside stuff, and of course milk. Everything actually came back negative which we were grateful for. With all of Parkers symptoms the Dr. has asked us to try a STRICT lactose free diet for 1 month to see if we see any changes and also switch from soy milk to lactaid (which is about $1 more than the soy).
He did so good and was such a big boy - he just kept saying "go car" whenever he wanted to go. The allergy testing was easier than I thought - they put small amounts of the allergen they are testing you for (looks like oil) then scratch a little prick into the skin. If they are allergic it will get all red and splotchy - (I totally should have taken a picture but I was too into it myself and forgot).
Jord and I decided that we just wouldn't buy ice-cream, pudding, yogurt, etc. for the month otherwise it is too hard on the little guy. If he sees those things in the fridge he throws a fit if we don't let him have them. It's hard because Seth LOVES dairy stuff but we have to keep it away from Park. Good Luck - hey at least I don't have to like cut out gluten or something.
