Epi Pen ????

My daughter is allergic to peanuts and we just went and picked up her epi pen and I noticed that it exp in may 2007. That just doesn't seem to be a very long shelf life for something that you hopefully will not need to use often. Of course if this is the norm that is fine but I feel like maybe the pharmacy just gave me an old one that they had on the shelf and if that is the case I am going back up there. So if someone could check theirs and let me know I would sooo appreciate it!

Son W/ Multiple Allergies. Help!

I just found out today that my 13-month-old son, who I thought only had a milk allergy, which was bad enough, also is allergic to peanuts and eggs. Needless to say, I'm freaking out. Nobody in my family has ever had food allergies and so it's just so hard to grasp the fact that he has one. I know I have to totally change our lifestyles, including my 3-year-old's, who has no allergies whatsoever and loves to eat everything everywhere. Has anybody else had to deal with this? I'm just lost.
