B/c of the milk allergy I hence have reactions to milk choclate, ice cream, cheese on occassion and other things with large amounts of milk or cream. However usually while on my medication it's not too bad. I usually can't have more than 1-2 servings a day though. So if I have a bowl of cereal in the morning, I might be able to have ice cream after dinner, but the ice cream will cause a bigger reaction than the milk would.
ahhh i'm allergic to milk too! people treat me like such a freak and i have to explain that being lactose intolerant is different from being allergic to it- i was "diagnosed" when i was 7- so i def feel you on the eating weird bread part ktsnake when i was growing up... i never could eat cereal or ice cream- no cheese- and hwen i was younger i would drink like a gallon of milk to myself every few days- so i had complete withdrawl- now i can eat cheese and ice cream- but in definate moderation- i get terrible undereye circles and i can't breathe well at all.... but not having any milk at all is like eating cardboard and tofu all the time... not my idea of fun .... yea- i'd like to know about the microbiology stuff to if you don't mind telling me some more about it- i just know basic stuff-lol thanks!
