098765 4 Posted February 28, 2013 I am about a week shy of my one year surgery date. At about 7 months out I developed an intolerance to lactose. My surgeon said it is common for some people to develop it. I can't even drink the lactose brand milk for some reason, so i Silk aka soy milk which is pretty good Anyone else have this happen to them?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Susie1226 138 Posted March 1, 2013 At my nutrition class today, my NUT said it was very common to develop a lactose intolerance after surgery. She recommend Mootopia mil bc it had 12 grams of Protein and it was lactose free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vogue 310 Posted March 1, 2013 it is VERY common to become lactose intolerant post-op I didnt do milk before surgery... since surgery Ive used coconut milk exclusively... ( I tried almond milk but it was too thick for my liking) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
