That is going to be tough. I know I could never eat things that I didn't
like. I would sooner starve than to have to eat things I don't like.

I don't think the dietician is an option. She would have to see the one
that I saw and she knows nothing of food allergies. She told me to drink
lactose free milk. I told her lactose wasn't the problem. It was the milk
protein. She just told me I would have to figure something out.
