I'm really confused. I had done Enterolab and food intolerance testing around the same time.

Enterolab says no reaction:

Have you had a Total IgA test done to see if you are deficient or low? If you are then you will not be able to produce a lot of IgA antibodies and your tests will show negative when you could really be having a strong reaction.

But ALWAYS the proof is in the diet. Remove dairy and see what happens. If you improve, you have your answer.

Thanks, no I have never had a total IgA test before. I assume this is something I can request from my doctor?

Off topic here but is that a Great Dane in your profile pic? I have one so always looking for fellow dane lovers.

Yes, you can ask your doctor for it.

That is our Bacchus...a harlequin Great Dane. A mixed media painting I did of him. We rescue. We had 3 plus a standard poodle. But the 2 senior dogs 13 and 10 passed away within the last 9 months. So we have 2 dogs now, but are expecting our next adoption within the next 2 weeks. A black girl.

Autumn my GD turned 2 in July and Blaze my dalmatian we rescued her May 2007; she was deemed unadoptable becuase of her age. She's a doll, 14-1/2 years old.
