No news is good news, right??
I feel bad that I have not being keeping up with updates but there really has not been much to say. Megan has been doing awesome with her egg doses and increases. This week she dosed up to the 450mg capsule. It is amazing how well she has been doing. Megan has stayed reaction free and willingly takes her egg twice a day. Next week she will increase to 600mg. The following week 900mg and then to 1200mg!!! After this point Megan will have FOUR weeks of desensitization left!!!! During the last four weeks she does 1/4 egg, then 1/2 egg, followed by 3/4 egg and finally a WHOLE EGG.

Life has been crazy...
Life has been crazy and I haven't posted recently. Megan continues to progress through her egg desensitization without any reactions. Dr. Wasserman is so pleased. Megan is up to 150mg capsules of egg powder!!!
Flu shot
Today Megan got her first ever FLU SHOT. Thanks to egg desensitization Megan was able to get the shot.

Egg a la whipped cream
Variety, the spice of life..
Megan is having fun mixing her egg powder with different concoctions. So far we have used honey, chocolate syrup, caramel syrup, and inside of licorice. The possibilities are endless. I am sure that once we are up to a larger amount of egg powder it will not be so easy. At that point we will have to mix it into whatever she eats. But for now it is fun just using fun foods.
