Hello All,
There seems to be a conversation that has been coming up more frequently in the food allergy world for kids (and adults) that due to a recent trip to the hospital for Lynda came back up to the surface. Many of the vaccinations such as the H1N1 vaccine are made from Eggs, thus making it unavailable for Lynda and many other children with food allergies. Over the years when working with her doctors and pharmacists we have gotten push back regarding the ingredients within certain drugs due to the companies not wanting to disclose what is in their product for "trade secret" reasons. I can understand protecting your brand and product, but when so many of these children have to pass on potential solutions to medical issues because we can not take the chance it makes it difficult to treat against medical issues to keep our children safe. In Lynda's case she already has so few options and we get concerned about long term issues like those 2-3 drugs her body will become resistant to and then we are at a potentially life threatening situation.
Here is a link to a website that has 3 articles regarding this issue:
