Sherry77 166 Posted August 14, 2012 Has anyone become lactose intolerant after surgery? Please walk me through your struggle? Any tips and tricks? I think this might be my problem, and quite frankly it's got me down :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jewels1227 20 Posted August 14, 2012 I have not. I am not sure of when your surgery was, but just take it slow. Your body is still trying to adjust and adapt. Your stomach could still be swollen, and does not want what you are trying to give it. Things will get better in time! Hope this helps! Good Luck! 1 Sherry77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lissa 2,631 Posted August 14, 2012 I'm lactose intolerant after surgery. I have avoided milk, ice cream, and cottage cheese since those three bother me. I can still eat cheese and yogurt with no problem. I think it's getting better. I had some cottage cheese the other night with a slice of Tomato and it sat well in my sleeve. Rex is finally starting to accept some dairy! Yay! 1 Sherry77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sassypants 674 Posted August 14, 2012 I’m lactose intolerant anyway not just because of this I use lactose free products like milk cheese and yogurt. You just have to look out for milk sugars in things that’s what disagrees with you, so you don’t have to switch to like soy or anything you can if you want (but I find it kinda yucky) I can have some normal stuff in really small amount like if I run out of my milk I can have a cup of tea with normal milk or if I want some cheese and its not mine I can have it but if you try too much or everyday your going to suffer for it. 1 Sherry77 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
