Manda, I am 59 and have been milk allergic for about 8 years. For the first three years I didn't know the cause of the itchy rash that covered the upper part of my body. When I became a vegetarian and started drinking rice milk the rash disappeared. Several experiments confirmed that dairy was the cause. Recently I broke out in a rash and it took several days to track down the cause - lactose had been added to the vitamin C I was taking. It is now 3 1/2 weeks later and the rash has still not completely cleared. I totally avoid dairy and don't really miss it anymore, with the exception of butter. (I would love to put butter on my popcorn again.) But now that I am gluten intolerant, going without dairy seems easy!
