Topic: Allergy Support Group / Coping with Multiple Food Allergies

I have just been diagnosed with 10 food allergies. The most odd one to me is that I tested reactive to cows milk, but not to hard cheeses such as cheddar, provolone, parmasean, etc., (basically anything you can shred). I’m confused as to what it means to be allergic to cows milk, but not to cheese. I’m wondering if that means I’m actually sensitive to whey protein (in milk) as opposed to casein protein (in cheese). If that is the case, it will make things clearer in terms of what I have to avoid. Does anyone have any experience making sense of this type of allergy diagnosis? I’ve been searching the web but have yet to find anything helpful.
