Time to Be A Detective

Yup it's that time again....Time for me to get out my magnafying glass and start looking. I went to give Belle a shower and her whole back side from the neck down is covered in her eczama, huge patches of it and I'm not sure why. So now she is not allowed any more banana's and the restricted diet is to begin again. I HATE doing this to her. She loves experiencing new food. Heck she even wanted to try guacamolie and loved it. I love that my little girl has taste buds that are willing to try anything. What I hate is what food does to her body. She hasn't been complaining about the itching but I know that it has to be bothering her. How can it not. I think it's time for a call into the docs. I at least want to try and get her on an allergy med for now so that at least we can keep the itching at bay w/o the side effects of being tired all the time. Benedryl makes her super sleepy and grumpy. I do not want to subject her teachers to that daily. So at least for tomorrow I think it's a day home with mommy and benedryl and hopefully a trip to the doc to get a non drowsy med to keep her comfortable. I know she did have a fruit roll up tonight and honestly I don't remember the last time she had one. Spring also seems to be a time where her body flares. I don't know the rhyme or reason behind it but it does...so here we go again. It may be snowing out but Belle's body doesn't know it and her poor skin is raging...
