2. Early Night by Alex Villegas
I lit up and began my prowl around the casino. As a lone hunter I had to pick my prey wisely. But this time, the prey found me. I was on the second floor of the Rio casino stumbling about when she found me. She had a punkish mohawk and was equally as drunk as I was. Maybe drunker. We locked eyes and the inebriation served as a catalyst for horny telepathy...More
3. The Almond Tree by May B. Yesno
I'm predisposed to flights of imagination at this time and these email and referrals are not helping my mental health. They stir the still, quiet, layers of the mind and bubbles rise.

Sacramento’s personality is shaped by several factors, including its location in the heart of agricultural regions, Gold Rush-era history and role as the capital of California. Traversed by both the Sacramento and American Rivers, this city is known for its farm-to-table fare and streets filled with trees. If you plan on getting married here, we can help with your search for wedding photographers in Sacramento that can perfectly capture your style.
Before you begin searching for shutterbugs as part of your wedding planning, keep in mind the typical cost for wedding photography in Sacramento equals roughly ten percent of your wedding budget or between $2,000 and $3,500. Each couple is unique and prices vary by photographer, but this range will give you a place to start. You can also narrow down your choices by reading reviews from other couples on independent review sites like WeddingWire. Finally, browse Sacramento wedding photographers’ websites to see samples of their photos in the portfolio sections. Look for shots that have an aesthetic you like. Also read their “About Me” section to get an idea of their personality. You’ll most likely meet in person and can get a better feel for their personality then, but it’s important you find a photographer who’s compatible with you and your fiancé(e)’s style.
Trying to find the most picturesque place to take your wedding photos? The wedding photographers in Sacramento will have suggestions. The city has several stately ballrooms on the riverbanks and manicured golf clubs outside the city that provide lovely settings. Old Town is also a popular choice, with its wooden sidewalks and historic storefronts evoking a vintage vibe. If the flowers are in bloom, the rose garden in McKinley Park is another favorite location for couples, where you’ll be surrounded by vivid colors and rich fragrances.
While spring and fall have the mildest temperatures and you’re sure to get some beautiful outdoor photos during these months, Sacramento has a temperate climate year-round and you could get some sunny days even in winter. Summers are bright and dry, and can get very hot, so we’d recommend indoor locations for your wedding pictures during this time frame (or early morning and late evening time frames). Get help picking a wedding date that factors in the season and most popular dates to get married.
WeddingWire can help you find all of your vendors, including one of the best wedding photographers in Sacramento, and all the other items on your wedding checklists so you don’t have to worry about reinventing the wedding planning wheel.

Kim ~ I am not really sure where to start, but I would love to share my story with other people. Since I was 15, I suffered from severe migraines. After years of added symptoms which included dizziness, fatigue, swelling, heart palpitations, insomnia, sweating…. the list goes on and on….I decided enough was enough. Medical treatment’s and tests always came back perfectly normal, sometimes too normal. On paper I was in perfect health! MRI’s and ultrasounds all came back with normal results …
One day, after eating a meal containing cheese, I was sitting at my desk clearing my throat constantly…which I had done since I was 15. I decided to look up information on the internet about people with the same problem. Funny, but after my research, it caused me to basically diagnose myself. After stopping my intake of all dairy, I found within 3 days, not kidding, that all..I repeat all of my symptoms disappeared. This was too good to be true!
I immediately decided to make an appointment with an allergist, just to see if I was right. After an allergy test was performed, I was notified I had an allergy to milk. Ta da! The weight was completely lifted off of me and now I currently have absolutely none of the symptoms I had carried with me for the past 17 years. I am now living a healthy and extra happy life without any medical problems whatsoever. It is truly amazing!
After conversations with my husband and family, I just feel the need to share my story with people in hopes that I may be able to help one person, two people, who knows…. So many people out there are suffering daily and doing everything they can to feel better, yet little know about the effects of milk,dairy…and what general food allergies can do to your body. I am blessed to have found my answer, but had I known or had my doctor’s ever suggested a milk allergy, I could have been free from all of the medical burdens years ago. At least know I have the knowledge of what allergies can do to our bodies and I hope to pass this along so other people are aware as well. Thank you so much for allowing me to share my story.
Your story has helped a lot coz I was having same problem & my doctor never could identify the fact the i have milk allergy.
I’m 32 years old and I had been having throat infection twice in a month for last 15 yrs. & my doctor had been putting me on antibiotics everytime. I also consulted many other doctors but no benefit.
And as soon as I stopped milk & dairy products intake; my throat infection problem disappeared magically…..
One more thing I realised that my sleep quality had also improved greatly. And that I realised only after experiencing that good quality sleep which i never had in my life.
One more thing I would like to share here that I’ve been diognosed with hypothyroid 15 yrs ago.
I also have read some articles on internet regarding connection between milk allergy & hypothyroidism; in which they say that hypothyroid can occur due to milk allergy too.
Thank you so much for sharing your story Prateek. I’m so happy to hear that you are finding relief!
I too have experienced a lot of what people are talking about. I’m 29 and had problems from about my mid teens up until just over a year ago. The chronic insomnia and exhaustion got so bad I suffered a collapsed lung on two separate occasions and went on sleeping pills for three months whilst seeing a sleep therapist (both a complete waste of time and money), not to mentions cameras inserted everywhere and visits to just about every doctor in existence! Only when I cut out dairy and gluten did my symptoms subside dramatically within about 5 days. I might well have ended my life over this and what for? Because of something that baby cows are supposed to drink, utterly ridiculous. It really held me back for so many years, all the way through college and university. However, now I sleep and eat better than anybody I know. On the odd occasion that I have dairy (maybe once every three/four months?), sleep is severely disrupted. Stay away from the white stuff!
I’m so glad you made it through all of that trauma and are doing so much better today! Thanks for sharing your story Aaron!
That is “utterly” ridiculous! haha. The way you word it there…. because of something baby cows are supposed to drink. That really does sound ridiculous!
You should thank your stars you don’t have trouble.
I have a question. I’m allergic to gluten dairy eggs nuts fish and wheat. What am I supposed to eat?! Doctors have zero suggestions .
Make a list of all the foods you can eat in detail – fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains, spices, sweeteners, etc. Then come up with a meal plan based on those items. When you start looking at all of the foods you can eat, it gets much easier. Things like rice bowls, tacos with corn tortillas, chili, and many other dishes start to emerge. If possible, try to avoid leaning on alternative products until you get settled in with the diet. Once your taste buds aren’t used to what the traditional items taste like, it’s easier to adapt to alternative products – to appreciate ones you enjoy the taste of, rather than constantly comparing them to what the traditional items taste like. My friend Megan runs a blog called Allergy Awesomeness with some great, everyday, free from recipes that I believe meet all of your needs -> https://allergyawesomeness.com/
Mrs. Fleming, I know your trying to help. But if I’m not mistaken; if your allergic to gluten, your not supposed to eat grains.
There are many gluten-free grains Ela. Such as rice, quinoa, millet, sorghum, oats (certified gluten-free if wheat cross contamination is a concern), etc. Gluten-containing grains (wheat, spelt, kamut) are only a small group of foods in the grain category.
I’m a 47 year old woman and since May I have been experiencing nausea (but I don’t vomit), a feeling of being bloated and full when I only eat a little bit, diarrhea, insomnia (going to sleep right away but waking up in the middle of the night, usually for a #2), and even heart palpitations, anxiety and some joint pain. I’ve always been a healthy person. This all started soon after returning from a trip to China so I thought I picked up a bug, but tests have come back negative. I’ve worn a Holter monitor for 24 hours and my heart tested as normal. I had an endoscopy that did diagnose chronic duodenitis, but biopsies and blood tests came back negative for Celiac Disease and negative for h. pylori, and I don’t take NSAIDs very often so the cause of the duodenitis is unknown. A few weeks ago on a whim I cut back on dairy, and felt pretty good for about three weeks, but I also thought maybe I was healing from a low-acid diet I’ve been trying to heal the duodenitis. Yesterday I had cheese, yogurt, and cottage cheese and soon after didn’t feel well, which has continued somewhat into today. I now think maybe I am lactose intolerant. Looking back, I’ve always been a big milk drinker and I’ve had lifelong weird symptoms such as a chronic cough. My throat always felt mucous-y and it made me cough one or twice to clear it. I’ve had more bloating and gas the past few years. I had no idea that heart palpitations and feelings of anxiety could be related to a milk allergy. I’ve been praying for relief, I’m hoping that finding this forum will lead me to the answers. The doctors haven’t been much help so I’ll be searching for a naturopathic doctor for the first time.
Hi Traci, I’m so sorry for all that you’ve been going through. There are types of medically recognized food allergies (milk being a top offender) that occur through the digestive system and yet can have systemic symptoms. A well known one is called eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Many researchers speculate that there are other types of non-IgE allergies that have yet to be discovered, too. Conditions like EoE are very hard to firmly diagnose. They can do biopsies, but a reaction needs to be occurring when they biopsy (and in the location of the biopsy) to ensure results. Many GI doctors will diagnose conditions such as EoE based on symptoms, and will recommend allergy testing (often via elimination diet). Please note that this is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as medical or dietary advice.
Thank you for sharing. I am 45 and have the exact same issues. Ive gone to dr and had tests which didnt help much. I cut out all milk and cheese as an act of desperation and realized it has helped tremendously. I had cheese 2 days ago and was back with the heart palpitations and gut issues. I recommend this to others as well as cutting out alcohol except once a week if socially reqired.
Ive had digestive problems for over 30 years since I was 18, just kind of lived with it when I was younger, but as ive got older has become more difficult to live with. Ive had loads of tests, all come back normal so it has to be something I eat. Long process of elimination and hopefully im getting to the bottom of it. Currently its looking like dairy products. If thats the case then at least I can deal with it if I know the cause. 30 years of not feeling well with multiple mystery symptoms has affected my jobs and relationships and social life/holidays. Cant turn the clock back but at least I could see a brighter more positive future hopefully if the issue is as simple as cutting out everything with cows milk. Ive always been a big cheese eater all my life, never gave it a second thought. Fingers crossed eh.
Thanks for posting this, this has inspired me to get tested for lactose intolerance. I’ve been having all these problems, and I notice they are like 10 times worse when I eat pizza or something else cheesy before bed, or ice cream or chocolate or basically anything with dairy. I’m going to cut out lactose from my diet and see if it helps and go see an allergist to get tested for that among other food allergies.
It might be cows milk, and not just lactose, No good buying lacto free cheese as its still made from cows milk. Im hoping its the cause of my long term problems
Like someone else said above, I could have written this post. Lifetime milk drinker. Looking back I think some symptoms appeared in my teens, but I definitely started getting bad symptoms at 28. I believe the stress of the birth of my first daughter triggered it (wife and I were up for 60+ hours straight, 29 hours of labor and then emergency C-section). Had every test under the sun and every time “you are a healthy 28 y/o” … “you are a healthy 35 y/o” … “you are a healthy 40 y/o”. Stumbled on vitamin D last year which greatly helped with the shortness of breath but not entirely. Symptoms mysteriously got worse on the weekends – I was drinking more milk. Finally a few weeks ago (age 44) I realized I was feeling oddly better and looked back on what was different the day before. My schedule was off and I hadn’t been home so I didn’t drink any milk. So I didn’t that day, or the next, or the next. Almost 3 weeks now and I 97% feel like a different person. Phlem is almost gone especially on my vocal cords, no pounding heartbeat, no skipping heatbeats, no feeling like my chest cavity is full of fluid making it difficult to breath (asthma inhaler did nothing to help that but they always insisted it was asthma). I would be severely out of breath for 10 minutes after 1 flight of stairs, now I don’t even have to open my mouth. I’ve had cheese, ice cream, dairy-based soups, all w/o any symptoms so I think my trigger is just liquid milk. 16 years and I can’t believe all along it was the white stuff I drank every day!
That’s amazing Doug. As frustrating as it is at all the time spent mysteriously not feeling well, it’s wonderful that you have your solution!
So far still doing much better. I have triggered minor reactions at times, like when I ate a Cadbury egg on an empty stomach, which of course has milk-chocolate. I don’t think I need to go dairy-free, but certainly no more drinking it.
Glad you are doing better Doug and I hope it keeps up for you!
My Goodness, I can’t believe what my eyes are reading in this thread! I feel I should post my story to show there is hope. A little background, I’m a two time Combat Veteran of the Iraq war, and while I was deployed I contracted the H Pylori bacteria in 2009, and my life, until this point has been a near standstill. I began to experience terrible reflux, acid indigestion, bloating, diarrhea, Ulcers, belching, rapid heart rate (I had nearly 150 ER visits thinking it was a cardiac issue) and even went so far as to have a heart cath performed. They all came back as normal and healthy as you could expect a mid 30’s male could be. Then in Late December of 2015 I began to experience these issues with more ferocity than ever before. I was convinced I had an undetected cancer and was near the verge of death. I finally went to the VA and was given an secondary treatment for the H pylori infection. They performed CT scans, X rays, blood work, but could find nothing. For the shake of honesty, I even began to let my mind drift into the terrible realm of contemplating suicide. I was that sick. Then during the course of my antibiotic treatment I became severely dehydrated and was hospitalized with a resting Heartrate of 165, very low potassium and calcium levels. My body was beginning to decay. Then, my last resort (which should have been my first) I prayed and asked to be healed. The very next article I found on the Internet when I grouped my system was Lactose Intolerency. I cut dairy out and THE FIRST day I did that I didn’t experience the symptoms as strong. Now I’m just on day two, but I feel such a huge improvement that I had to share my story, in the hopes that in may help someone else. I’m Now excited about my life again. I hope this helps someone else, as I have seen a vast improvement in under 48 hours.
Thank you for you help
John, I’m so sorry to hear all that you have been going through. I hope that the upward motion in your health continues. Thank you so much for sharing your story!
Thank you for this forum!
Go you, John! Dairy’s the ONLY link in my life to constant headaches (missing sleepovers, parties as a kid)…canceling my birthday with a new boyfriend…(he took care of me all day, thank God) and lots of pain. So glad you figured your symptoms out. Blessings
Omg, thanks for sharing. I have been suffering for years from congestion, sneezing, heart palpitations, acne sweating etc and I recently found out it was the dairy. I have been dairy free for 1 month now and I can say its the most amazing change. I am now free of all the symptoms and have much more energy than my old tired self. Yeah I sometimes miss drinking milk but I am better off now.
I’m so happy you’ve found your solution Govind!
Hi, I have been on an extremely long road, when I look back my symptoms first started when I was 16/17 years old. I had recently moved in with my boyfriend and started consuming lots of tea with sugar and milk. I didn’t notice straight away but shortly after I started belching and I mean belching it was bad. I went to see my doctor she said it was nothing to worry about. So I went about my business for the next 22 years belching away. When I turned 38 I started getting really bad bloating had always had bloating but now was worse. stomach cramps and diarrhea. I also suffered with palpatations. Again I went to the doctors who said I probably had ibs. And stress related anxiety. Was given antidepressants. I didn’t feel depressed though. Well I did because I felt constantly unwell, I was starting to feel really tired al the time. I then started with tinnitus in both ears so again went to doctors, was told it was stress induced. I have in the past 12 months noticed that all my symptoms are triggered after consuming dairy usually with 20 mins. I have never done the 30 day dairy free as I miss it so much but think I will now have to be determined as tonight I have bloating, belching, palpatations, stomach cramps, diarrhea, tinnitus, and tingling around my lips and joint pain can life get any worse.. 🙁
Hi Sharon, I’m so sorry for the symptoms you’ve suffered – you are long overdue to feel good! I have some resources that I think will help. First, my Six Simple Steps to Going Dairy Free – be sure to really focus on number 1!! Also, this Diet & Healthy Journal is free and can help with tracking everything. Best wishes!
I have been diagnosed with high cholesterol two months ago due to excessive smoking. I left it right away the very moment, changed my diet. But due to deep depression, i cut all the dairy, meats in my diet with very less calories a day for about one month. I am 26, male and after a poor diet, i started feeling some fitness issues. I felt pain in the left arm, heart palpitations and extreme depression , i too get chest pains and excessive bloating. ECG done for multiple times, but it all came out normal.
Fifteen days back, i analyzed my issues, started working on good diet, added chicken and now dairy. There were times, when even walking for one minute could have caused my heart to beat like 90-100.It really scared me as i do get little stinging mostly pointed pains in left arm. Then i realized that i have deficiency of B-12. Currently i am gaining my health back, but i do feel some discomfort in left side of heart if i do extra exercise. With all the things above, is it possible that i have done some damage to my heart in any way although ECG came out normal still. Thanks!
Hi Muhammad, I’m so sorry to hear about all of your health troubles! It’s good to hear that you are finding your way back to health. I couldn’t answer you on the heart issue, but your physician should be able to address this.
I am writing this comment out of an array of feelings (frustration, ambiguity, despair), and I’d love some feedback. I have been to 4 different specialists, all of them saying my symptoms are due to something different (for example, stress, milk allergy, stomach ulcer, etc.). I find myself really hopeless. I am so tired of the symptoms, and I am so tired of trying something new to fix them. I am also really tired of going to countless doctors and getting no definitive, objective answer. I’d just like to know what the problem is. I’d like to share my story on here and see if anyone can help me.
For the last few years, I have had consistent GERD problems. I have also had occasional eczema. Sometimes my burping gets so bad that I can’t leave the house. It all started 5 years ago when my wife and I were living in China. I drank some milk one evening and immediately began burping. My mouth swelled. My teeth hurt. I belched 1k-2k throughout the night. Since that event, I can’t have milk without similar symptoms. I assumed I was lactose intolerant and would only drink milk infrequently. I continued to eat other things with dairy (butter, cheese, etc.). The symptoms were manageable.
Unfortunately, the symptoms have got worse, the main ones are still burping, gas, and stomach pain with occasionally skin itching an eczema. I am sure there any many more symptoms that I simply refuse to acknowledge. What can I say, I am a stubborn, successful man who hates admitting that I might have a problem. One doctor says its stress related. I will admit that I do better when my stress is down. On the other hand, I went to an allergist a couple months ago. He did extensive food allergy testing. All of the testing came back negative, but he said without a doubt I am allergic to cow’s milk since I immediately begin burping within minutes after consuming milk.
I have tried to go 2-3 weeks without any dairy products, but find it extremely difficult. I end up losing the will power to continue since the doctor’s results are not definitive. I also find it hard because it seems like everything contains butter, especially at this time of the year.
I know I am being stubborn. I don’t want to accept I have a problem with milk because the drastic change it will require. I want to believe its something else. When my symptoms do start getting better after not having milk for a couple days, I tell myself its just a placebo effect. I also tell myself its just LI and not a milk allergy, which means to me that I can still eat baked goods and pizza (how could anyone give up these things????).
Anyways, my story seems insignificant to the symptoms others have, at least I feel it is insignificant. Yet, I still fill disappointed, somewhat depressed. I’d just like an answer. It’s hard for me to get out of the denial stage and move to the grieving and accepting stage because I am a man of science–I need objective results.
Hi Jacob, nothing is insignificant about what you are going through. Those are real symptoms affecting your quality of life. It sounds like the problem is, you have the solution, from your doctor and your own observations, but you’re mentally blocked. I recommend that you read this post I put together, and really focus on Step 1: 6 Simple Steps to Going Dairy Free for Good. Transition that stubbornness to your benefit (being determined to feel good and do what it takes rather than as a crutch for fear). Also understand that MILLIONS of people eat dairy-free around the world – it may seem daunting, and truthfully can be tricky at first, but once you get into your groove, it really becomes second nature. You also get to discover so many new indulgences that you had no idea you were missing. Trust me. And stop stressing so much! Also, keep in mind that symptoms can mean underlying damage that is happening – damage that may affect your long-term health. Finally, go to my Newbies page to help gain your bearing and confidence. Also, for allergies, the definitive answer most often lies in an elimination diet (such as going dairy-free) – this is actually the gold standard for doctors. All he can definitely test you for is an IgE-mediated allergy. However, there are several types of non-IgE-mediated allergies (also called cell-mediated), which are far more difficult to test for and often inconclusive. Cell-mediated allergies almost always involve gut symptoms, but can also bring other parts of the body into play, like causing eczema. Just a quick note on the science 🙂
Alisa, thanks so much for the information and the science lesson. 🙂 The six simple steps are very helpful. My wife and I are going to try a 30 day dairy free diet and see if that helps. I appreciate your insight.
Good luck Jacob, I hope it works out very well for you. I have a free journal download for tracking symptoms that may be helpful for you – http://www.godairyfree.org/the-dairy-free-challenge – 2nd tab.
I too had GERD for over a year and could not figure out why. It usually hit me in the middle of the night so I couldn’t make any connection to a specific food. I did all the “proper” things like not eat late, avoid spicy food and alcohol, etc. Nothing helped. One day, for unrelated reasons, I decided to go on a gluten-free diet. Within 3 days my GERD was gone. I mean GONE! It had plagued me nearly every night but now, a year and a half wheat-free I am also still completely GERD-free! I too had allergy tests and was told I was not allergic to wheat. But what a difference it has made to cut wheat from my diet. So perhaps dairy is not your problem. Try going wheat-free for a few days. They have a lot of good-tasting gluten-free products these days, including pizza! 🙂
I’m glad I stumbled upon this story! For 10 years now, I’ve been having stomach trouble, hives, insomnia, anxiety, heart palps, and other symptoms..I had tests done which just like you, came back normal…the docs keep saying it’s just ibs, or worse, it’s all in your head…what really stuck out to me is when you said ‘clearing my throat’ because that happens to me after I eat all the time! That, and stuffed up sinuses! Within minutes of drinking milk, I get sick, but I was too stubborn to admit that it may be the cause of all of my symptoms! Thank you for this article, I’m going dairy free
Good luck Jill! I hope it helps you tremendously!
I have just this week “diagnosed” myself with allergy to dairy. I thought I was lactose intolerant and for a while the lactose tabs helped. I have had palps off and on for more than 20 years and was able to figure out what caused them such as certain medications, but recently have been having very debilitating episodes. When I read that palps can be a symptom of anaphylaxis, then I related it to allergy. Today was the first day in a week that I have not had palps, headache, upset stomach, excessive sinus drainage, and diarrhea! No dairy for two days! Finally, after months, I think I have found the answer to my problems. Wonder how many are suffering and don’t know why.
I’m so happy to hear that you are finding relief Carol! I know, if only it were even easier to share these successes with others 🙂 I know your comment and story will help though!
I could have written this article! As I got older my symptoms got gradually worse. To the point where my night sweats meant I had to put a towel under the bed sheet. My wife would have a duvet over her and I would have a thin cotton sheet – I was always so hot. I snored loudly. I had all the other symptoms too. I was getting very concerned. I was about 40 when I self- diagnosed, and cut out call dairy. Within 3 days the symptoms disappeared. I stopped snoring. For the first time in 15 years of marriage. For the first week or two my wife kept waking me up a couple of times a night because she thought I had died! Stopping dairy literally changed my life. I told the doctor. I live in France. He looked in his medical dictionary and lactose intolerance isn’t even recognised here! I always carry lactase enzyme tablets and take them whenever I eat out. I still get caught out from time to time but at least I know what is causing the symptoms, which helps enormously.
Thank you so much for sharing your story too Tom! This is so helpful to others, and I’m so glad that you found relief without dairy!
Super late to the party, but this is me when it comes to whey. So for instance, dairy products made of goat’s milk don’t give me night sweats, but any product with added whey will, on top of any dairy product that is cow-milk based. And whey is in a lot of things you’d never assume! Nutella, Doritos, many boxed meats, it’s shocking. Of course when I eat things where ingredients state “may contain milk products”, the whey dosage is so low that I don’t get any reactions to it. But like you, cutting out the source of it (whey) was night and day. I spoke to my doctor multiple times about my night sweats and not once did she mention it might be a food intolerance issue. It took a couple accidental experiments of my own (taking whey-powder protein shakes before bed) to confirm what it was.
Thanks for sharing!! I have had trouble with swelling in my face and stomach for years, and I also was having heart troubles. I actually started to make the connection that milk was hurting my bowels. After a night of what felt like giving birth, I stopped milk. Drank soy for a couple of weeks and my face slimmed down and I hadn’t look that pretty in ages. Amazing. But soy is expensive, I ran out, and mixed a cup of milk with the last of my soy. I instantly had bowel trouble and swelling in my face and neck. That’s all I needed. Dairy never again.
So sorry to hear about all that you went through Amber, but wonderful that you have a solution now! Thanks so much for sharing your story.
Wondering if you craved dairy even though you were allergic?
That definitely seems possible if you have had dairy before!
Keep in mind you can have an igg response and not allergy, but still have all these symptoms. I have the igg response but not ige. If I eat dairy, my throat is tight, heart flys, skin breaks out, I get very constipated, gas, bloating, joint pain, bloating, and headaches. My body clearly doesn’t like milk!
Same thing happened to me, I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance( apparently no such as milk allergy then) as a baby, they assumed I grew out of it. My entire life I have migraines battled insomnia , chronic allergies, chronic bronchitis, heart palpitations and snoring. Last year I started a diet (to loose weight) cut out everything but white meat/seafood and non-starchy veggies. All disappeared within 1st week. After 7 months on it I added dairy and fats back, bam it all came back(most within 20 mins) . I finally made connection and removed dairy again. Been a week without it and almost back to normal. I am 27, took this long to finally get answers. Dr. thinks I don’t need test since diet proves it, but got blood test anyway. Got 4weeks till confirmation.
Thanks for sharing your story Jade. A long time coming, but wonderful that you finally found the culprit!
My heart pounds after I drink milk. Its happened for the past few months.
I’m sitting here crying because I love cheese!
I’ll skip dairy for a week and see if anything changes because so far my slight anemia and iron supplements haven’t made that much improvement….
I read this post sometime last year searching for answers on how to get rid of my heart palpitations (PVC), which were getting worse and worse: affecting my work and quality of sleep. They had been bothering me from 7 years and heart specialists were clueless. It would take me two hours to fall asleep as my heart kept skipping and I kept trying to find a nice upright position that would ease the symptoms… somewhat.
After reading this post I got tested for milk allergies, but I came out negative. Even so I was following a GAPS elimination diet and eventually also eliminated dairy and now I’m so much better. Thanks for putting this post up as I’m 95% sure my palps were related to dairy. I’ve tried raw goat milk, raw milk, home-made kefir, hard cheeses, and ghee and they all seem to re-introduce my palps. I think I can tolerate a few teaspoons of ghee and there might be a few cheeses I could do, but I’m afraid to experiment.
Once I get palps it takes days for them to completely dissipate – up to about a week, which is why I’ve never been able to associate my symptoms with any particular food.
Hope this helps other poor souls out there and don’t give up on eliminating dairy even if you test negative. There might be an intolerance issue, which triggers a similar result? Who knows.
That is an amazing story TK, thanks for sharing!
I get heart papitations at least every ten days I find out if I eat frozen pizza I get them the same nite or drink milk or eat string chese wondering if this is my issue please email me. now my doc wants to put a tiny monitor in me to monitor them don’t know about that either please he
Hi Caroline, can’t advise you medically, but you may want to mention this correlation to your doctor.
Wow! Thanks for posting your experiences TK! I can totally relate to your every word. I’ve been experiencing annoying palps for years and had recent suspicions of a food allergiy/sensitivity as the cause. My palps also worsen when laying down…weird. Not sure how this is relative to a food allergy though.
Are you still able to manage your palps by eliminating your dairy consumption? I will definitely give dairy free a try and see how I feel. I’m willing to eliminate dairy if it means eliminating my palps!
Your story (and TK’s) sounds just like me as well, including palps getting worse for a few minutes when I lay down. I’m curious if going dairy free eliminated your palps? I’ve been doing an elimination diet after my alternative medicine nutritionist said I’m allergic to dairy, gluten and beef. (Insert sad face here…esp for the dairy.) I just added dairy back in last Friday night and began having issues again today. Dang it. 🙁 (The stuffy nose and drainage began the day after adding it back in, but heart palps just resumed in force today. Ugh!)
Just hoping for a “cure.” Now I’ll be back on dairy free…sigh…
Good luck with everything Melissa. If dairy does turn out to be a problem for you – have no fear, it gets much easier!!
Im curious as to the extent of your insomnia? I have discovered that if I eat daily then I awake at approximately 3am in the morning with stuffy sinuses. Also discovered that for me dairy causes blackheads. My allergy test did not confirm allergy to dairy though. thanks for posting.
Your story is so encouraging! I just found out last week that I am allergic to all dairy (including goat’s milk) and have been quite ill for a long time and am hoping this is my answer!


SCOTUS will consider free speech damages in case of evangelizing college student
Image from Shutterstock.com.
The U.S. Supreme Court agreed on Thursday to decide whether an evangelizing college student may receive nominal damages from a state college for an alleged free speech violation that happened under a policy that has since been discarded.
Georgia student Chike Uzuegbunam twice tried to distribute religious literature at the Georgia Gwinnett College, according to his cert petition.
The first time he was stopped because he was outside one of two tiny zones on campus where “free speech expression” was allowed. A second time, he was stopped because of a person’s complaint.
A college speech code then in effect said students could be found guilty of disorderly conduct if they engage in public speech that “disturbs the peace and/or comfort” of citizens.
The Alliance Defending Freedom filed the cert petition on behalf of Uzuegbunam and a second student who self-censored himself after seeing how Uzuegbunam was treated. A press release is here.
The university changed its speech policies after the lawsuit was filed. At issue is whether the policy change moots a claim for nominal damages.
The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals at Atlanta ruled that the request for nominal damages is moot. It is the only circuit holding that, absent compensatory damages, government officials are never liable for violating constitutional rights if they change their policy after being sued.
“Without nominal damages, bureaucrats can trample constitutional freedoms, then deprive citizens of a way to vindicate their rights,” the cert petition says. “The 11th Circuit’s rule slams the door on many civil-rights plaintiffs and makes future challenges less likely.”
Six circuits allow nominal damages despite a policy change, while two other circuits ban damages if the government changes a policy that was never enforced against the plaintiff.
The case is Uzuegbunam v. Preczewski.

Commonwealth laments lack of contact with Sharief
Visiting Commonwealth foreign ministers today expressed disappointment that they were unable to talk by telephone with ousted Prime Minister Nawaz Sharief, despite assurances from the new army ruler.
"Despite assurances from General [Pervez] Musharraf that we could have telephone contact with Nawaz Sharief, this did not take place,'' the visiting team said in a closing statement.
"We were therefore unable to obtain any direct verification of his health and legal status," said the statement.
The statement was issued at the end of a two-day meeting to assess prospects for a return to civilian rule after the bloodless October 12 coup that deposed Sharief.
Sharief has not been seen in public since his overthrow. The military says he is in protective custody at an undisclosed location pending an investigation into his official and financial conduct during his 31 months in power.
Sources close to the ministers say they waited in an Islamabad hotel room for some time awaiting a call from Sharief after a meeting with Musharraf. But no contact was made.

American Airlines – presently undergoing financial restructuring – has completed what was needed for the cargo unit. Kenji Hashimoto, president of the carrier’s cargo operation said that “the vast majority of the work needed on the financial restructuring of the company is complete, and for cargo, specifically, we are done”. The aim was to develop a competitive cost structure with focus on customer and operations.
AA has been steadily losing freight volumes, partly because of the reduction in capacity. In September 2012, the ton-miles total went down to 136 million, an 8.3 per cent decrease year-over-year. For the first nine months of 2012, cargo revenue was down 6.2 per cent, with yield falling by 5 per cent and traffic by 1.2 per cent.

There’s nothing better than spending your days photographing moments of pleasure, excitement and the atmosphere of a music festival. We spoke to Ty Johnson; photographer, film producer and art director of second echo about his experiences photographing festivals, films and his favourite photos of all time.
What is it that you enjoy most about photographing a gig/festival?
I’ll go for festivals over gigs usually. In this setting, I tend not to focus as much on the stage, but rather the moments and the people around the grounds.
That seems more genuine and interesting to me.
People are often their most uninhibited at a good camping festival.
Maybe not on day 1, but by day 2 they have spent good time philosophising with friends, having a laugh and getting amongst the vibe.
When you photograph people in their most relaxed disposition they open up more than usual.
I’m really into the documentary side of photography and festivals always provide ample opportunities to capture those fun moments.
I’ve been fortunate enough to be one of the staff photographers at Meredith and Golden Plains for the past 4 years. It’s certainly one of the best festivals in the world.
How did you come to creating Sideshow Alley?
It kicked off in 2010 when Dave Budge and I starting working with Melbourne band The Tiger and Me. We were chatting with them about music video concepts and decided to film an intimate live recording in a laneway to ease into our collaboration.
It came together so well that we decided to continue the format and extend the invitation to other great local and international talent. The environment really embraces the spontaneity for musicians and crew alike, and it takes some of the pressure off the performance allowing it to remain honest without the build up of expectation. Our team of contributors in both Melbourne and New York are all really talented filmmakers!
We’ve been really blessed to film episodes with Kimbra, First Aid Kit, Laura Marling, Passenger, Mumford & Sons and many more.
We’re just about to release our first feature film music documentary “Austin to Boston” which I co-produced with Ben Lovett (Mumford & Sons/Communion Music) and co-edited with Kitty Green (Ukraine Is Not A Brothel). James Marcus Haney directed it with post-production duties all handled by the Sideshow Alley team in Melbourne. It follows Ben Howard, The Staves, Nathaniel Rateliff & Bear’s Den driving across the USA in 5 VW campers. The film has recently screened at 15 film festivals around the world including BFI London Film Festival and IDFA in Amsterdam.
What do you love about creating musician portraiture?
I think it just extends from your own interests. If you were a real foodie then you’d probably make a great food photographer. I’ve always been a music enthusiast and have worked around music and musicians for a long time. Most of the promo music shots I’ve done to date have been of friends or friends of friends.
It’s fun to band together with like minds, at least that’s how it has panned out for me.
How did you come up with the photos/inspiration for Bear Den’s Islands cover art?
I’ve been working with these bearded lads since the inception of the Austin to Boston film back in 2012. They are just lovely dudes and we get along really well. I also really love their music.
When they asked me to work on their debut album artwork I pitched around 4 or 5 concepts. Tonally and lyrically the songs always created imagery in my head from when I first heard them.
The idea we all landed on stemmed from a few specific lyrics, with a particular line referenced from their song Stubborn Beast (“And as you wander your islands, unborn and unloved”). I researched the imagery of desolated islands and inner isolation and ended up selecting a series of arctic type patterns that seem to resonate and emphasis this feeling in an abstract way.
Each of the EPs all took shape from this same approach with added line work illustrations incorporated by my fantastic artist friend Mathew Dodos.
What was your first camera you ever purchased?
I had a few automatic film cameras lying around when I was younger, but nothing too special. I remember my Dad buying me this Japanese miniature underwater camera with its own propriety film. You couldn’t buy it anywhere in Australia so that was really handy (thanks, Dad!). My first digital camera was this super chunky Kodak thing that I left in a cab after a gig. I then had a Canon G3 digital camera when I started travelling overseas.
Later on, when I actually studied photography I started messing around with different digital and film SLR’s. More recently I picked up a beautiful old Rolleiflex, which I really love toying around with.
What was your favourite artist/music event you’ve photographed?
Standing on the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury in 2013 has to rate pretty highly. That was one of those bucket list items I had noted years earlier when I first went to the festival as a punter in 2005. Mumford & Sons headlined the Sunday night. James Marcus Haney and I captured their set in front of that enormous crowd. It was also right after Ted from the band had just recovered from a pretty serious operation so everyone was in really good spirits.
For the finale, the band were joined onstage by The Vaccines, Vampire Weekend, The Staves and First Aid Kit to sing “A Little Help For My Friends”. Pretty special moment.
What would you say your photography style is?
Music lifestyle documentary.
What band/musician would you love to photograph?
There are certain artists we’d love to capture for Sideshow Alley. Acts like The War On Drugs and Ryan Adams spring to mind. Let’s add Motley Crue or Journey too just for good measure. As far as portraits are concerned I haven’t really thought too much of it. Documenting tours and events is my first love, but I’m looking forward to expanding on my collaborations with artists for their artwork and promotional works too.
Do you have a photography bucket list?
I’ll be ticking off Bonnaroo in July. I’ve been lucky enough to have a few fantastic opportunities fall in my lap over the last couple of years. I think I’ll continue to maintain this approach and just see what happens. Let’s see where the next adventures leads! Through Sideshow Alley we will be continuing our new path of creating films alongside our episodic content.
What made you want to become a photographer?
It was taking photos on the road that first developed my interest. Firstly on a 6 month camper van tour around Australia with my Mum in my late teens, then later when I travelled a lot while living in London for a period of time. A camera often gives you a purpose to explore, or an excuse depending on how you look at it. Initially it seemed to help justify all of my expenses on travel and music festivals. I worked in a web design capacity for various music venues and festivals in the UK, which also cemented another level of passion for what I do.
Aside from the gigs you have to shoot, what is your own personal music taste?
It’s somewhat eclectic but there is definitely a folk/Americana slant to my regular favourites. Story teller types. The War On Drugs, Beck, Sharon Van Etten, Ryan Adams and Steve Smyth were all high on my list of favourite albums from last year. I’m a big BBC 6 Music and Double J listener.
What’s it like being a curator for live music for Communion Melbourne?
Even before I began collaborating with the Communion Music team on artistic projects I was always a fan of the records they put out. The club night in London has a strong reputation of supporting a long list of amazing artists. In 2012 I worked directly with HQ in London to set up the Melbourne night. It followed the same international format of presenting a different lineup each month offering a creative platform for emerging, developing and established artists to perform in an environment that embraces collaboration and mutual support.
Over the last few years we’ve curated over 50 local and international acts including Vance Joy, Meg Mac, Matt Corby, Willy Mason, Bear’s Den, The Preatures, Ainslie Wills, Ali Barter and The Trouble With Templeton. Melbourne has very rich live music scene. I’ve a lot of respect for the good promoters in this city who continue to look after artists and bring live music to the people! Curating a regular night with 4-5 acts can be a pretty demanding and time consuming task if done right. The Melbourne Folk Club also do a fantastic job of this and well worth a look if you’re not already familiar.
I’m really proud of all the shows we’ve held at The Toff In Town. Unfortunately at the moment I have too many creative projects occupying my time so for the time being the club night is on hold.
What are your top 5 favourite photos you’ve taken of musicians?
Aside from some of the aforementioned shots, here are a handful of others that spring to mind.
Ben Howard in Brooklyn on the Austin to Boston tour
Portrait of Nora Kirkpatrick. An outtake from a photo session with Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes
Willy Mason promo portrait
Bear’s Den promo portrait
Winston Marshall from Mumford & Sons on the Gentlemen of The Road tour in Dungog NSW

Shahrukh Khan enters the Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs Grand Finale. Just as Jai Soni and Manish Paul were performing a dance for the song Chammak Chalo we saw Shahrukh Khan entering the event. There was a huge round of applause as the King Khan of Bollywood enters the stage. Shahrukh Khan is seen sporting a pony tail in Don 2 style as well. The show stopper Shahrukh Khan requested permission from Puneet to dance for Chammak Chalo as well.
Although Shahrukh Khan was not able to perform for the entire song due to his late entry he danced a little bit for the song Chammak Chalo. It is also seen that Azmat Hussain is dressed in the Ra.One getup which would impress Shahrukh Khan himself. Shahrukh Khan is here on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs, Grand Finale to promote his movie Ra.One as he feels it is the best way to reach kids for a kids movie. The trailer of Ra.One was also aired for everyone to see on the big screen.
Shahrukh Khan ends up giving a little more information on how the story of Ra.One goes. Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs, Grand Finale would for sure be one of best platforms to promote Shahrukh Khan's movie Ra.One. Shahrukh Khan takes Azmat Hussain to his parents with a big round of applause that goes around the stage.

Welcome to The Delivery! This is our daily feature that brings you a round-up of the action from the Aviva National Finals 2023 at Victoria Park, plus a preview for the following day.
Day 14 Round Up – Wednesday 23rd August
The Juniors took over Victoria Park today, with the start of the Women’s Junior Singles and the continuation of the Men’s Junior Singles. We were also treated to the Quarter-Finals of the Men’s and Women’s Senior Fours.
Women’s Junior Singles
Our Junior Women kicked off proceedings on Day 14, with 52 competitors lining up on every Rink from A to D Green, for their Aviva National Finals badge presentation. With a mix of newer faces and experienced players, it was set to be a tough tussle.
Following her success in the Women’s Fours, Yasmina Hasan (Egham BC, Surrey) was looking for more glory. She breezed through Round One, with a 21-4 victory over Grace Fussey (Cambridgeshire), but had to dig deep in Round Two as she faced Maddie Burgess (Worcestershire), securing a 21-17 win. The journey came to an end however, with a 21-14 loss against Warwickshire’s Emily Kernick. Emily will be looking to continue her successful run (21-3 v Sophie Wood, Durham & 21-15 v Keri Palmer, Herefordshire) when she faces Leicestershire’s Kat Bowman tomorrow (Thursday 24th August).
Last year’s two wood singles winner, Rhianna Russell, had a great run to Round Three before falling short to Olivia Starr of Somerset, in a 21-14 battle.

Title holder, Daniel Ellicott (Warwickshire) continued his campaign to retain the Men’s Junior Singles trophy with a Round Two match against Dan Hughes (Essex). Ellicott made his way to Round Three with a 21-15 win, but his efforts to retain the title were quashed by an on-form Oli Collins of Somerset, who secured a 21-17 win despite excellent efforts from Ellicott to get back in the game from behind.
Callum Hodgson of Cumbria went safely through to the quarter finals thanks to wins against Carlos Lali (Berkshire) and the 2022 runner-up Lloyd Milligan (Lancashire).
Meanwhile, Mack May (Cambridgeshire) held his nerve on the streaming rink, followed up with a convincing win in Round Three, and will face Kyle Leeks (Suffolk) in tomorrow’s Quarter-Final. Given Leek’s form throughout, it’ll be a great match-up.
But the Cinderella story of the day was Oliver Shearing of Middlesex, who fought hard in Round One (21-19), Two (21-20) and Three (21-18) to secure his spot in the Quarter-Final.
