You certainly aren't crazy. The question to be answered is whether you're 
right. Right about the dairy being the problem. It may be, or it may be a totally 
different underlying condition. Those can be maddeningly difficult to 
determine. You mention delayed reactions, but never say what those are, how long they 
are delayed, or how long they take to go away. Those are critical for 
diagnosis. You may be seeing the wrong type of doctor.

Most children with true dairy allergies do outgrow them. Recent studies have 
shown that they last longer than once thought, however. Researchers used to 
think that most children outgrew them by age three, but now it's known that it 
can be as late as age eight.

In the meantime, it'll do no harm to for your son to avoid dairy. 

I have an extensive listing of milk alternative products on my Product 
Clearinghouse website.

The Cheese page specifies which substitutes contain casein and which do not.

I have a huge listing of cookbooks that are aimed at people who want to go 
dairy-free. I don't sell them myself, but just put up links to Amazon so you can 
purchase them.

You can also find general information posted daily on my Planet Lactose blog.

I just list milk alternative products. Alisa Fleming at GoDairyFree sells 
much more extensive listings of all foods which are dairy-free. They're only $10, 
so they make a good investment.

She also has loads of recipes and other information available.
