Thanks Does anyone know if Dr. Sami Bahna is still in practice? Last I saw him, he was working in Philadelphia. If not, any breastfeeding friendly allergist in the NYC area is needed. Client has a 6 mo old exclusively bf infant with severe eczema, and the doctors are telling her he's allergic to her milk protein. She has already eliminated many things, and saw a homeopath without consistent results. Gave her all the standard info- great allergy books, rare foods diet, pancreatic enzyme for her. Baby has lost 1 lb recently, so I also recommended a sweat chloride test, as the last baby in my practice who was diagnosed as "maternal milk protein allergy" turned out to have cystic fibrosis.
