Suggest Treatment For Multiple Food Allergy Problems In A Toddler

I have a 17month old son.he was breast feeded for 7month.he has food allergy since his second month of life that was started with egzema on his face and body, about 6to8 times a day diarrhea,reflux and later on his 6th month blood in stool. on his 7th month doctors recommended us to put him on neocate formula.on the same month rast test showed just egg white allery and skin test carrot.aftar starting neocate every thing went ok exept egzema.I found out most of his allergens by the time and experience. from 12to14th month of his life egzema was gone but it appears again after giving him potato(it was third time that iwas giving it to him and every time was a failure) and is not gone yet!he is so greedy and most of the time i really cannot limit him.he is now not eating potato,carrot,fish,cow protein,fish,lamb protein,soy,nuts,egg white and some other things but there is some thing allergen in his diet obviously that causes egzema! _Now I really want to know what would happen in future if i dont stop the allergn that causes this allergic egzma?his growth rate is so slow by this limited diet and i am really worry for his future and his body lack of vitamins and minerals _as regards his only sympton is egzema,is that right by not limiting allergns, this multiple allrgy would stay by him for life time or even become more serious? Unfortunatly kids allergy is an unknown thing in my country and doctors couldn,t help me so much Please excuse me for my long question and bad english I really appreciate your favor
