I forgot to mention-- Last week, we tested me on cashews and pistachios. Neither made my mouth itch. It's appearing more likely that I'm like my mother and only have trouble with walnuts (and peanuts, but that's a separate allergy). At any rate, getting cashews and pistachios back means I can have some baklava as made by the local Syrian bakery.

We'll be testing other nuts, one type at a time. I certainly react to some nuts, and stuff that makes my lips, tongue, etc. itch is something I want to be cautious about. I won't be risking peanuts at all.
