My son was part of a milk desensitisation trial at a London university - at the start of the trial he went in to anaphylaxis after 0.6ml (total) of cows milk hidden small portions of rice milk (so that we and the doctor didn't know how much he was having until after he had reacted).

It was pretty scary but the rest of the trial was a success and by the end of the trial he reached 120ml of milk before anaphylaxis. He now has two small pots of yoghurt a day and can finally eat 'may contain milk' products - which opened up loads of food to him.

He likes the yoghurt and in theory could now progress onto other milk based products for his daily doses, but similar to the comment below regarding peanuts, he doesn't actually like drinking cows milk, or eating cows milk cheese or chocolate.

Brilliant to see this is working well in adults, he has other allergies too, so hoping we can get more of these under control through desensitisation, opening up more food to him and derisking daily life.
