Title: Goodbye Dairy Allergy
Post by: suevv1 on May 22, 2012, 02:16:53 PM
Hi all,

I can't believe I'm really typing this - but DS passed his dairy challenge.  It was last Friday.  I waited a few days to report because I wanted to be sure it was true.  But he has been gobbling cheese and ice cream and yogurt for a few days now, so it's real I think.

Honestly, I had been mentally composing a post to you all about how he didn't pass and how we'd get there someday, but how I was soooo disappointed.  But as the hours wore on during the test, it dawned on me that we were going to make it, and I just couldn't believe it.  It's hard to get my mind around it.  I bought a half gallon of ice cream on Saturday, and almost started crying in the checkout line.  So many options open to us now....

Needless to say, I hope and pray that we will all have this feeling some day - and will leave all these evil allergies behind.

Lots of love,
Sue

Thanks all.  Going nuts-- he is 4.5.  Highest RAST was 16. We have been doing baked dairy for about two years and I really believed it helped.

Suevv1, my son outgrew dairy when he was about 5 1/2.  He had been doing baked dairy for about 1 1/2 - 2 years at that point.

So happy for you!
