Doris Rapp has some books on food allergies and behavior. We tried the food elemination diet on our oldest son when he was in elem. sch. and didn't figure out what he was allergic to, but I always noticed he went wild when he ate hot dogs or chocolate, any my other kids did, too. He was allergic to eggs when he was little, and still hates to eat them. Now the oldest son is allergic to codiene and ceclor. Ceclor, one pill, sent him into anaphyatic shock and we almost lost him a couple of years ago at Christmas time. A team of doctors and nurses worked feverishly on him for 6 hours in the emergency room, then he was in observation room for two more hours. It was touch and go. Allergies to food and drugs are REAL. I have a friend who has to carry a shot kit for allergic reactions to TOMATOES. I almost died of penicillin reaction. I am allergic to milk and chocolate. A friend of ours had to stop drinking beer, he craved it, but it made him MEAN. After he gave up beer, their marriage became strong again, he stopped beating her.
