This site describes galactosemia about as well as I have ever seen it

described; this is a more rare disorder than lacose intolerance, and

more serious, and is becoming more widely known. The importance of

it is that it is vital to have you or your child accurately diagnosed and

this disease distinguished from lactose intolerance, and both distingui

shed from plain old milk allergy--and there is no law that you cannot have

all of them AND be a cf carrier or a person with cystic fibrosis, alas!

I like this site, and submit it as the topic of problems digesting milk have

surfaced again. This also can readily be tested for and one does

not have to guess about one's own treatment or one's children's.

I have one child who is lactose intolerant, one who is allergic to milk,

and five cousins with galactosemia--and by the way just because all

your ancestors came from NW Europe does NOT mean that you or

your children cannot have any of these conditions!

Now that I have really cheered people up on two list, I'll go!

n Rojas, your busy little web-browser crawler!
