The Overzealous Patient

Back to the allergist's office I went today for my first round of shots. The nurse inquired about how I was feeling with the diet changes.
I talked for minute and then she exclaimed "You didn't cut out everything that came back positive at once did you?!"

Me: "Uhhh, yeah...I thought it was a 'don't eat any of this'/'only eat this' situation so I've been cold turkey on the whole deal."

Nurse: "Oh, no! Drop ONE food at a time for 7-10 days and then add the next highest offender."

Me (to myself): "Now how in the world did I miss this little tidbit of information?"

Me (outloud): "Oh, okay, that makes life a little better."

Now, I'm still a little befuddled at how the rotary diet works into this...I need to call them tomorrow for clarification. I think I can eat everything on my daily list, plus some of my offenders but minus the ones I have eliminated? That doesn't make much sense. Ugh! This is so confusing. However, I quickly determined that since cheese and milk were my #1's, I'd keep those at bay and went ahead and drove through Wendy's for a burger. Ahhhhh. Yum. I just should have had them add bacon (pork is on my no-no list too). The adventure continues.
