Thank you, thank you, thank you! I used this handout at a meeting with my son's teacher this morning after a near miss due to confusion about IgE vs. non-IgE allergies. This put things simply for her, and now I feel confident that she understands and can keep my son safe at school.

That's great to hear that it was useful for that type of situation!

It would be very helpful to further understanding by also knowing what is the percentage of IgE mediated vs. non-IgE mediated food allergies. I hope that additional information can be posted in a comment or follow-up blog entry. Thank you!

Here are three reasons why you should consider participating and adding your voice to this research.
