Hi there! i've been to see a dr due to some concerns regarding dairy. i have been suffering with phlegm and when showering i end up gagging and throwing up. the dr did an allergy test by scratching my back. i am needing a second opinion?

For what?: What do you need a second opinion for? The person to discuss this with is your doctor who should be able to suggest a doctor for second review. This forum is not appropriate for a second opinion as we are not able to examine you. Wish you good health!
