skin pricked allergy test

brought the little one to the skin prick allergy test as she keep having rashes which did not recover after lots of steroids cream used.

Dr Darryl referred us to Dr Chan YC at Gleneagles. his clinic is at #07-14/15. a very deserted clinic tucked cosy at the very end.

after registeration, the wait is like less den 10mins and we are ushered into the room for consulation. as per usual, questions asked regarding her rashes and more understanding was needed. we poured out everything we knew or suspected. Dr Chan did a microscopic check on the rashes and diagnosis as fungus infection instead.

she was given the fungus cream to apply and to monitor for a week. and we requested to have a skin prick allergy test to check if she is allergy to any food.
it was a simple test with no blood withdrawn.
all the nurse did was to clean the back, write test no on the back, prick and wait for 20mins before the results are out.

after the results are out, all are tested negative!
thank god tat its not the food allergy that causes it. juz lets hope all these saga would b gone soon. and her rashes would recover soon.
