Food Allergy in Children



ORIGINAL POST
Posted by twillis 12 yrs ago
Can anyone recommend a Dr who may have experience in dealing with older children with a potential food allergy or digestive issues?

I would like to deal with this through a registered GP & not an alternative practitioner.

Both my children seem to suffer 24 hour nausea attacks after eating out. The symptoms do not resemble classic MSG allergy symptoms ( & we try to avoid places that potentially use MSG, despite preferring Asian food).

We do not have medical insurance so it does to a certain extent, cap the fees & testing we are able to pay for, hence the request for reliable recommendations ( I know allergy testing can be a protracted & expensive route). All advice gratefully received. Thankyou

Try Dr Lilly at London medical clinic in central. my child goes to her. they even do home visits. you may also want to post question to babychatroom.com cos loads of parents go there for info. well I do. Just good to get info from them too.

Thanks ftse. I will go & check them out.

And thanks for the tip about babychatroom.com. I was recommended Dr Trodd ( for blood tests for allergies ) & the IMI clinic ( for IgE allergy tests) ... just in case anyone else is researching a similar thing. I may do a hair test too. This is for a 12 year old often stricken with nauseau after eating out in Asia generally ( happens a lot on holiday) but doesn't look like MSG.

maybe trying an elimination diet or GAPS diet apporach may work, this is less costly for sure, but takes alittle more time to do.
