Common Questions and Answers about Milk allergy vs reflux

milk

Avatar f tn If from the breast it could be reflux but it could also be an allergy to something in your milk. Also is he throwing up a lot (projectile) or just a little bit. If.it's just a little bit it could just be normal spit up. Unfortunately if it is reflux most doctors won't do anything while baby is young or if he's still gaining weight. I suspected at 6 weeks that my daughter had reflux and my doctor didn't prescribe any meds until she was 7 months old.
2088782 tn?1333221786 First I am told by one doctor that the chronic headaches, sinus infections, pain in my ears,blurry eyes and problems taking a deep breath are due to a milk allergy. So I cut all dairy out of my diet. I go see the allergist who tells me the test says I have an allergy but he says I don't ( he did the skin test). I looked at the blood test results. Milk showed a score of 40 level 1 (mild) and my IGE serum 152.
Avatar n tn so i'm 24 and for as long as i can remember anytime i've had any milk or ice cream, it has always left a bad taste in my mouth. i have no problems with cheeses and yogurts. at school when given the choice of white milk and chocolate milk i always chose chocolate milk because it masked the bad aftertaste. i hated when my parents made me drink milk with meals. i never had digestive issues - bloating, gas, stomach aches, undigested food, etc - until about 6 or 7 months ago.
2006603 tn?1331329327 My son has the milk protein allergy so he is on Similac Alimentum. We give him gas drops and he sleeps in a cradle swing so hes not laying flat on his back. I just dont know what im going to do if medicaid wont pay for his ranitidine. He's already had a pretty rough start in life, he had to have surgery on August 9th because he had pyloric stentosis (sp?), he had the milk protein allergy, he has night time colic and now i cant get his ranitidine until oct which helps him wonders.
Avatar f tn Ugh!!! I have never had heart burn or acid reflux before until I got pregnant! It's so bad! It's more reflux than anything! It's an everyday thing now and even if I watch what I eat I swear it still happens. I think it's getting worse! I drink milk, water, take antacids, lay on my left side!!! What else can I do?! Nothing helps anymore!
Avatar f tn There is a difference between lactose intolerance and a milk allergy. You might have a milk allergy. If milk bothers you, you should avoid it.
Avatar m tn I used to have this until I stopped dairy, especially drinking milk. There are so many substitutes now, such as almond milk, coconut milk, flax milk, it's easy to replace dairy. In case you have acid reflux, start taking Metamucil capsules every day. It cures reflux for my boyfriend.
Avatar f tn s ALL RELATED. Allergy can cause constipation. Constipation can cause reflux. Reflux can cause asthma. Perhaps a consultation with an Allergy/Asthma specialist might be warranted, following some bloodwork.
Avatar f tn a possible cows milk protein intolerance/allergy, but will only drink aptamil 1st milk -21ozs a day and is on 3 meals a day, why is he putting on so little weight? my daughter is 2 and half and was loads bigger than him at the same age!!
Avatar f tn Now, 3 months after the hives started, if I drink even a small amount of milk, I immediately have allergic symptoms, hives, acid reflux and then hours later digestive issues. So, a milk allergy sounds like the problem and I love cheese and now when I look at everything I eat, I consume dairy products every day! Until I can go to an allergist, I am going to eliminate all dairy products and products containing casein and whey from my diet to see if the symptoms stop.
Avatar f tn He could have allergies even after testing, JANUARY, THAT'S THE BEGINNING OF TREE ALLERGIES.. GOOGLE IT. I also have a horrible cough that leaves me exhausted.. Chest x-rays, mri's, cat scans, allergy tests only show grass, weeds as allergy related. He could have post-nasal drip causing him to cough. Elevate his bed (pillows under mattress) portion. He could also have "reflux" and should try otc prevacid for acid reflux..stay away from spicy foods.
1572688 tn?1295824230 I have a hiatal hernia, at times it will cause acid reflux, but, I am able to eat dairy products and drink milk. You could very well have an intolerance to milk products, thus causing the uncomfortable feelings. I would see a gastroenterologist and have gall bladder ruled out and also an upper GI to make sure there is nothing else going on. Also, a food allergy panel for dairy products would be good to have as well to see if you are indeed allergic to those types of foods.
Avatar f tn my daughter has trouble breathing at night. Really loud and mucus-fulled snoring, pauses in breathing due to build up of mucus between nose and throat. During the day difficulty breathing through her nose so a lot of mouth breathing and wheezing due to mucus. Pediatrician has been treating with nasal spray (for minor nasal tissue swelling), nebulizer with albuterol, and most recently claritin. She had allergy test which revealed allergies to milk, peanuts, soy, wheat, corn, eggs.
Avatar f tn 10 minutes into the treatment I felt sever stomach and legs pain and short of breath. I was treated with extra hydrocort and other allergy treatments and the taxol was stopped. After 2 hours of rest I was send home. I read about the abraxane and want to ask my doctor to change taxol with it. Is it the right move? do i better my allergy symptoms with abraxane?
9182722 tn?1403784024 Sounds like reflux hun. Try in favor or grip water. If it keeps up try rakie. This really helped both my wee boys. But yes babies can teeth at 2 months.
Avatar f tn t suggest the possibility of an allergy to dairy. Try to switch him off milk completely including Pedesure. Try a soy milk. It might make all the difference....Good luck. I hope he gets better soon.
Avatar f tn If I was unable to breastfeed I woulkd give my little one goats milk fo rsure which is most like breast milk then any other milk on th emarket. Hope this helps ya!
906115 tn?1344200509 I'm not lactose intolerant but I have a true milk allergy which is very rare in adults. I was diagnosed as a child but when I went to the allergist recently they said no way I would have grown out of it but when they tested me sure enough like I said I was still allergic.
Avatar f tn My son was the same way. He ended up with a milk and soy allergy and needed the hypallergenic formula (expensive) but it took us going to a GI doctor. They also gave him medicine to help sooth his gi track.
Avatar m tn i am 42 years male suffering from dust allergy,while waking up i have sneezing in morning , nose block in winter seasons & not able to identify smell of any thing.kindly advice. thanks, C.
9109315 tn?1408617920 I try to drink water throughout the day, but end up being very thirty at night. I get instant acid reflux when i drink water at night though. Try some coconut water if you can, it is great for hydration. I usually drink that during the day and try milk at night. I also live by tums, they are amazing. Good luck!
Avatar f tn My son took it after switching to a soy and it made hes poo too runny. That led to the discovery that he has a milk protien as well as a soy protien allergy and is now on a hypoallerginic formula. I am also on Wic and no matter what formula they put him on they will cover. My son is on Similac but they only cover Enfamil but since Enfamil does not make this particular type they do cover it!
Avatar f tn However, the behavior often seems to me like an allergy. I wonder if the only way to test for an allergy is to do a blood test with an allergist? Maybe he is intolerant, but not allergic?
Avatar f tn Every pregnancy I hace had, I couldnt tolerate cows milk. It really upsets my stomach. I niw only drink LACTAID. Its really good and lactose free. Still has vitamin D and calcium too. Worth a try.
362119 tn?1223137936 That is a sign of acid reflux, when the milk comes out of the nose. I would talk with your pediatrician.
