female only Lactose intolerant

Has anyone who had Lactose intolerant still have it after the surgery or did your go away?

Before the surgery I was LI but in denial because I love everything that is lactose . Now after, I have been eating less and trying to stay from those triggers so I eat babybel cheese, silk milk (lactose/gluten) free, haven't had ice cream, lactaid cottage cheese and I watch for these foods when I eat out. Before the surgery, I would have gas so bad AND diahreah with it. I thought it was IBS but found out that I don't carry the lactose antibody that some have to prevent attacks. Trying to live a lactose free lifestyle with my new baby pouch, however, I love a Dairy Queen small cone, so pray for me this summer

i wasnt lactose intollarent prior to surgery......now i am but only when its pure dairy. if i have small amouts of it it doesnt seem to bother me but drinking a cold glass of milk or a piece of chocolate just wont work anymore.

I was lactose sensitive before surgery. Not sure about after but I couldn't do my yogurt I was so excited to finally have this morning.

Yes, I was very lactose intollerant right after surgery and probably for the first year. Now, I can have small amounts of milk. Any more than that and I get horrible gas pains and smelly gas.

ice cream is the worse, It causes explosive diarrhea. I can eat yogurt and cheese just fine.
