Totally off topic for this thread, and I don’t mean to hijack it, but this is the first time I’ve seen _anyone_ else on any of these diabetes forums mention eosinophilic esophagitis! 😮 I’m happy to hear your son is only reactive to milk. Mine seems to be caused by milk, eggs, wheat, soy, and possibly some other foods. I’d actually mostly eliminated dairy even before diagnosis, due to allergy symptoms — I’ve had an anaphylactic allergy to potato since a young age, and some of my dairy symptoms overlap with that more “classical” type of allergy. Avoiding all these foods, plus a few others that I get oral allergy syndrome to, plus trying to eat low-carb for diabetes (which I’ve abandoned for now, with predictable results, but will return to at some point when I feel less burned out) is not easy at all.
