A member asked:
My son has an peanut allergy but has no reaction. does that mean he doesn't have it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sensitivity: If an allergist has told you he has an allergy please don't test it by giving him peanuts. Food sensitivities can build over time, which means he could eventually have a very serious reaction.
