Hi - The mushy poops may have something to do with lactose intolerance rather than milk allergy per se. (Since he went without milk for so long, he may have simply stopped producing the lactase enzyme.) However, you also mentioned asthma and EAs (I'm not sure what that stands for, but it must be something not good, right?). These symptoms, if they persist, would lead me to want to maintain a comprehensive food diary for several weeks (the first week without any of his allergens, including the outgrown ones) to see if there's a correlation to any of his foods. And you may wish to look at other common allergens again, using the food diary as a tool. (Sorry, I know that restricting his diet is NOT on the top of your wish list.)
