There is no test that is 100% accurate!. You should rely on what your body tells you!.
If you had a blood test, get the results checked via skin test with your allergist!. We have had blood tests (RAST) that came back very wrong!. I have a daughter with a terribly strong egg allergy and the RAST came back negative!.
We've had better luck with the skin tests!. They showed our strong allergies, but also gave us information on moderate and mild allergies!.
Any test should only be used as a starting point for figuring out your allergies!. If it makes you feel bad or sick, keep it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Biologically speaking, we, as humans are all allergic to milk as adults!. Obviously we are not baby cows, or goats or anything else!. so it is odd that we consumer 'milk' meant for the young of other animals!.with that said, your individual reaction to dairy is just that, and an actual small percentage pf the population is technically lactose intolerant!. but the term gets thrown around and misused a lot!. interestingly, the majority of people who self diagnose as lactose intolerant, are really just having the symptoms of our inherent 'allergy' to milk!. pertaining to your allergist, well, you know your body best, if you can handle dairy, and in what form is up to you!. it is of course, over all much more healthy to stay clear of dairy, but to each there own!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Actually, yes!. My daughter was "diagnosed" with bronchitis every three weeks for about 6 months, when she was drinking milk from her bottle!. She'd get green mucus, and cough a bunch!.!.!.daycare sent her home, thinking she was contagious!. Every time I took her to the doc, they said it was bronchitis, and gave her another antibiotic!.
After a few months of this, my mother suggested that it might be the milk!. We switched her to acidophilus milk, and the symptoms disappeared almost overnight!.
It doesn't make sense that this should work!.!.!.the acidophilus is supposed to help with digestive issues!. I can't explain it scientifically, but I know that it's true!.
If I were you, I'd probably give regular milk another try!. Lots of things can change over 20 years!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
