- I have Raynaud’s in my fingers and occasional pernio in one of my toes. My 5-year-old has mild eczema and glaucoma, which could be autoimmune in her left eye, so I experimented with egg, dairy, and nightshade elimination to begin. There is no change in the 9-year-old’s psoriasis, so we did a 90-day AIP trial. The older daughter’s psoriasis improved a teeny bit, and I am wondering what test would be most beneficial and easy/practical bearing her age in mind to get to her root cause. I would love to do a stool test, but she is pretty disgusted by the idea of collecting the sample. It’s so much easier to figure this out for clients, but when my children are concerned, I cannot see the woods for the trees. I would really appreciate your thoughts.
