Oh, on your love for cheese -

Not sure if you doctor told you this, but it's something to consider. Basically, whatever foods we are allergic to, we are often "addicted" to because we actually get an almost high like response when our body releases epinephrine (adrenaline) to combat the effects of the allergic response. Despite the atypicalness of my allergy, i definitely experience a high when I do eat corn containing products. Actually, after I'd been corn-free for a while, that was how I figured out excedrine changed their formulation to include corn starch was I started to have my corn highs whenever I took a pill (and the headache wouldn't always go away :( )

Oh, you will need to ask your doctor if you need to avoid medicines with a lactose substrate, or if those will be suitably milk-free not to worry about.
