Hi,
Excuse my lack of knowledge here but is there an actual test for casein
intollerance, my Dr's had to be convinced to do a biopsy and none ever even
considered any intollerances, most of my understanding of
allergies/intollerances is what I am learning on-line.
Will be seeing Dr. on Friday afternoon any specific tests I should as about
regarding casein/lactose???
Thank you very much.
