Our female developed allergies at 2 yrs old. She had not demonstrated any symptoms prior to that. She got them pretty bad, we did not know what was causing it. Took her to the vet (actually 2 vets) and the both recommended that we start to identify what food allergy was causing the problem. She went on steroids and within 1 month put on 10 unwanted lbs, with some positive results but we were treating the symptom and not the cause. Around September ( here in Fl ) the allergies completly disapperared. We were now clued in that it was an enviormental problem. She picked them back up here in May and we are efforting solutions as we speak. These allergies are sneaky, try to logically think through the diagnosis process, lotta times the simplest solution is the right solution.
Good luck with your search, you are on the right track I believe by looking for case studies in this thread.
