We've been on a waiting list to begin the Peanut desensitization. This week I got the call from the allergist, they've got an opening. We quickly snatched it up!
Beck will have his pre-day #1 on July 20. This day they will collect all consent forms, and review the program and answer any final questions.
July 21, pre-day #2: This will include a 4 hour session where he will be given peanut solution every 15 minutes.
July 22, pre-day #3: Repeat of day 2, receiving updoses every 30 minutes, for about 4 hours to see where he gets for his "tolerance" level of peanut.
(they used to do one 8 hour session, but now do 2, 4 hour days...)
We will then begin August 3 for our up-doses. Each and every week for 6-7 months we will go every Monday morning to increase the peanut dose. Mondays are going to be early days around here. We are a 1 hour 15 minute drive to the Dr.'s office. And, we need to be there by 7:20 each Monday. :)
