Hi @BcgirlHaven’t tested for a few days but this morning was 6.2
taking a two month break from dairy….I’mvery sad, love my cheese and heavy cream. Hoping (or maybe not hoping) that it clears my constantly runny nose and congestion.
I have been tested and tested for allergies. I’ve done all the skin tests and blood tests. Dairy has never been an issue…but it may not be an allergy, just an irritant. I’ve gone dairy free before for a year and I’ve got no problem just trying again. I can happily eat meat for a few months, in fact I feel great eating that way.Hi @Bcgirl
I'm passionately fond of cheese too. To forgo cheese and cream is not going to be easy having given up so many foods already due diabetes.
Have you considered allergy skin tests? Sensitivity to virtually all allergens that cause allergic rhinitis and sinusitis, can be determined with skin testing; not only foods, but also airbourne allergens such as pollen, animal fur, dust mites and pollution.
