And, when I requested latex be added to a very recent allergy panel for my
eldest, the Doctor gave me a little lecture about allergies coming from
exposure, and since she had not had banana since she was 7 months old (now 13 yrs
old) that she wouldn't have a latex allergy...which is usually seen "In people
in the healthcare industry who have repeated and regular exposure"
He did include it anyway "to appease me", when I insisted...
Argh, waiting for the results now.
I will continue to include latex on her allergy list.
I also list foods to which she has an aversion...

This is all so fascinating to me, thanks to all who have shared so far! Of
course, all of this makes me wonder why doctors, even those who are supposed
to specialize in allergy and immunology, don't seem to know these things.
My daughter's allergist even went so far as to tell me my extended
breastfeeding of her had "no lasting impact" on the development of her
immune system. Gah.
