12mg dose

 A little reminder about how much 12 mg is...

On 12/10/15, I had a minor reaction. I got a little welt on my lip, but I remained calm and it went away. I haven't had any reactions since and I think it was caused mostly by homework stress.

This time I mixed my peanut in...
  • Apple Sauce
  • A grape
  • Cheese
  • Ice Cream
  • Fried Rice
  • Marshmallow (I want to try to make it into a s'more soon)
  • Cookie dough
The biggest trick is trying to find something that you can't taste the peanut flour (it taste nasty)...So far I haven't found anything that completely masks the taste.

Okay, I'm going to post this so I can go to bed. I have to be up in 6 hours to head to the new appointment. Hopefully they will (more than) double the dose to 25mg.

Day 3 (December 4, 2015)

Today was day 3! My dad and I left really early this morning for my appointment. It was a long drive but we made it. We actually got there a little early and walked around Michael's. It made me want to craft.

At the appointment, they took my height and weight. (dang... I'm still 5'4, I want to be tall, grow McKenna grow)

 Next, I went back to my room and ate my peanut flour (12 mg) in apple sauce.

Then, I waited. To pass the time, I read a book that I got from the library. The book is called Also Known As. It's a teen spy book, my favorite topic.


 After my appointment, we got my new dose, ate lunch, and drove home.

6mg dose

I am almost done with my first take home dose. As a reminder... this is how much 6mg is.

MINUSCULE! Anyway, the past 2 weeks have blown by and I have gotten creative with what I mix it with. I take it every day either with an after school snack or with dinner. There is no way I am going to wake up earlier than I have to. Aurora needs her sleep ;) 

I have mixed it with/ate it on:
  • fried rice
  • mandarin oranges
  • white rice
  • bread
  • pudding
  • apple sauce
  • dried apricots
  • And more that I can't remember
Tomorrow, I will go back for my up dose...stay tuned.
