I love dairy. But realize I need a trial month without it to test for reactions. Is there any other way to test for dairy sensitivity than reintroduce dairy again?

I plan to see an eye doctor to understand the weepy eyes. I suspect it goes with the endless nasel congestion. The 24/7 kind that has left me a mouth breather, mostly.

How long without dairy to know to keep clear??

I'd think a couple of weeks. A month off and I bet if dairy is an issue when you go back on you'll notice things getting worse. For me, I feel it after a single day of going back on.

I've tried goat milk, sheep cheese... doesn't make a whit of difference.

One final thought. You might not notice your symptoms going away, but you'll sure as heck notice them coming back.
