We saw the ENT today. After looking Sydney over, he still thinks she is suffering from a food allergy.
The singular and zyrtec as well as the elimination of milk and egg didn't really make that much of a difference. So, we can eat what every Sydney wants for the next few weeks. We did a blood test today to check for an allergy to 7 different foods.
We should have that result back in 2-3 weeks. Then, if it comes back positive for anything, we eliminate that from her diet for a month. We go back in two months. See where we are. If she still has fluid in her ears - we try tubes.
If her breathing is still through her mouth at night - we will xray her head to see what her adenoids look like and then decide if those or her tonsils should be out too.
I'd rather do everything we need in one surgery.
So, that is our plan.
I don't know if I want her to be allergic to something and try to manage her allergy with diet alone (boy that would be hard for almost any of the things he's checking) or if I want her diet to be ok.

Allergies--such a strange thing, in all honesty. Our immune system is quite a mystery.
Keep us updated!
I don't know what would be worse. Tink had a T&A when she was 2 - and the world was a much better place. Keep us posted!
