Hi Eleanor- I had to look at the lab reports and it says IgE. What is

the difference in the two? (Ige and IgA). All I know is they took blood

from him. And after years of black eyes, once I removed all offending

foods the black eyes cleared up COMPLETELY. I had wanted to get LJ

allergy tested years ago, but he was a foster child at the time and I

couldn't do any doctors or teasts without permission from the foster

agency, so once I adopted him (at age 5) iI had him tested immediately.

Let me know what IgE is verses IgA if you know or anyone reading this

knows.

Thanks
