Testing
Hi when testing on FID, do you have to wait until your skin is completely clear? Issue is that my skin has never been completely clear but what has happened whilst on FID is that my hands got 80% better after 8 weeks on FID to the point where I felt I should start testing. I still have some eczema on my ankles (which have been treated recently with steroids) but the eczema there is a hell of a lot better than it was when I started FID. My hands flared up last week most likely as a reaction to potato. In the 6 days since the flare up, my right hand is almost fully recovered whilst my left hand still has a few remnants of the break out I had. Should I start testing again now? Appreciate your thoughts! Mark

Hi Mark, that’s great your skin has improved on FID. Yes 6 days in between testing foods is enough (after a reaction) and it sounds like your skin is not in a flaring stage anymore so you are good to test the next food.
