How can i be sure if i have dairy allergy? or i if i am lactose intolerant. ? is there any sure shot test?

Can reliably tell: If you utilize a lactaid supplement. This supplement breaks down the mild sugar(lactose) that people with lactose intolerance have issues with in dairy. If Lactaid supplementation helps, then you know it's not a dairy allergy, as this allergy would be to specific milk proteins and not so much the sugar.
