New to the group, hoping to find a place where everyone doesn't think I'm
crazy. My 4 year old son and 1.5 year old daughter have UNDIAGNOSED dairy
allergy. When my son was almost 2, he had the skin[prick test, which was, of
course, negative. But I know, whatever the doctors say, that dairy causes all
kinds of problems for him. His reactions are delayed, not life-threatening or
immediate, and I have heard that for this type the skin test is of no use. I
know there is a blood test, but our insurance doesn't cover it and it would
take a lot to convince my husband to do it. Any suggestions? I want a
definitive answer, especially for more support in family. Unfortunately, the
medical community has thus far not helped, telling me he has no allergy or
that if I just continue to give him dairy he will grow out of it. Also, lately I am
wondering if i should cut out beef, too, and of course everyone thinks I am
crazier than before. Please help!!
