Okay--I am really confused. A "true" milk protein allergy means an 
allergy to cow milk, not human milk. So....the mom eliminates cow milk 
protein and likely all sources of the protein, including all the animal 
sources. As to the prolapse--I do not think the conditions are mutually 
exclusive and I also think that any intuition a mom has should be taken 
seriously.

 Subject: Milk protein allergy

 I don't know if you remember a few weeks ago I was talking to you about
 the dark green stools with tinges of blood my son C* was having. That
 day you were actually able to look at it. I was collecting his stool
  samples for his ped who had asked us to. Well this morning (after 
almost
 3 weeks) the results came back and the Nurse Practitioner has come to
 the conclusion that C*r has a "true milk protein allergy. You need to
 bring him in and we will have to discuss stopping your breast feeding
 and switching to formula." I am devastated, however my gut feeling is
 telling me different and that this isn't the cause. I have done my own
 research and feel that he may have a condition called a muscosal
 prolapse, he was hospitalized at 16 days for salmonella and was thought
 to have a muscosal prolapse of the rectum before the culture for
 salmonella was confirmed.
