That's a really interesting theory. I'd like to know what the outcome you find is.

1)what you were allergic for
Allergic to milk and milk fat (not lactose intolerant, but allergic)

2)at what age that was diagnosed (either by a doctor,
yourself, parents)
Diagnosed by doctor after numerous testing at around age 13

3)what were physical symptoms of the allergy
Excessive mucous, congestion in nasal cavities and chest (I sounded like I had a terrible cold), breakout in pimple-like rash especially in face, occasionally vomit if too much consumed (i.e. drink a glass of milk)

4)around what age did you develope your ED
About 13 or 14 y/o

5)did you grow over your allergy
No I haven't outgrown it but I still "cheat" and eat limited amounts of cheese.
