Anonymous ~ For several years I  had morning sinusitus which took at least an hour to clear.  After I eliminated dairy products from my diet by using rice milk and soy cheese, the sinusitus cleared and has stayed clear for months.  Some of the morning attacks were so severe I had full blown panic attacks.  In addition, I always had a lumpy feeling in my throat with the need to clear by coughing at least every minute.  I always knew that I was lactose intolerant by blood in my stool, but never realized all of the complications associated with dairy.
