All The Shit Darwin Is Allergic To

Just got Darwin's allergy tests back today, which were taken the 8th. Let's take a looksee, shall we?

Cats
Dogs
Egg Whites
Milk
Dairy
Codfish
Wheat
Corn
Peanut
Soybean
Tomato
Beef
Orange
Garlic
Onion
Apple
Beta Lactoglobulin
Casein
Chicken
Banana
Pear
Lemon
Turkey
Green Bean

... and for the items I don't necessarily recognize...

German Cockroach
Derma. Pteronyssinus
Dermatophagoides Farinae
Penicillium Notatum
Cladosporium Herbarum
Aspergillus Fumigatus
Mucor Racemosus
Alternaria Tenuis
Helminth. Species
Fusarium Moniliforme
Rhizopus Nigricans

... additionally, it looks like he has celiac disease and some "Whey IgE" allergy.

And how am I coping? Not too well, but lacing my Pepsi with whiskey has done wonders.

What do doctors do to find out what one is allergic to?

Gosh, just found your comments. Sorry about that.

Jaggernorton -- for kids under five, they do blood tests. Over five you can get stuff shot into the skin on your back (I've had it done, and OUCH), but they don't have that for every last detail. But they have all sorts of allergy testing with blood.
