I'm allergic to milk too, but it's not all that severe... I generally try to avoid it as much as possible, but I *LOVE* cheese, so that's really hard.
Betarulz, can you PM me and fill me in on some more of those reasons? People always assume that it means I'm lactose intolerant too, and I'd love some more facts to convince them that there really is a difference...

I'm also really allergic to all citrus fruit. If someone in the same room is peeling one, just the smell of it makes my eyes burn and swell, kind of like most people with onions, but worse. If I eat anything with citrus in it, my reaction ranges from breaking out in some hives to not being to keep anything down for 24 hours straight, depending on the amount I had.
And if I have anything with alcohol in it too, like a screwdriver or something, the combination of the alcohol and the allergy makes me completely sloshed after one drink and reeeeeeeally sick the next day (that wasn't fun to discover...).
