Ah - that's an interesting question.

Depending on the nature of the allergy/intolerance, you might see 
some change. If it's true allergy (which it may have morphed into), 
then I'd expect little change. Lactase deficiency? Not sure on that. 
There was some talk a while back about the so-called leaky gut 
theory. Not sure whether that's ever been supported by any controlled 
studies. I personally attributed my dairy-triggered arthritis to 
that, but without any real basis in science. In some realm of 
imaginative thinking, there could be something in the thought that a 
healed GI tract may not "leak" some of the dairy proteins. If your 
symptoms are not serious or life-threatening, it might be worth a challenge.
