Just a thought - did the itching start after the food change - what happened prior to the itching occured. That vet is wrong allergies occur from 6 mos to 3 years of age. we see a dermatologist and have been dealing with horrible atopic dermatitis for 5 years now ever since dd was 6 mos old |
We believe she is mild MVD. Her post biles are 39 but I've never proceeded with further testing as her symptoms have greatly improved. I went back in my records and had noticed that she was doing this same thing this time last year. I wonder if the severity has just increased to where I realize this is now a serious problem or that this is just a seasonal thing.
Have you been using Natural Balance Vegetarian and doing ok with it? Do you think this is better than the prescription diets?
