Milk problems?

Donna, I am 6 weeks post-op. I can tolderate lowfat cheese….but…I can’t
tolerate milk or cottage cheese. Prior to surgery I loved cottage cheese, now I
can’t even tolerate the taste in my mouth.

    Sure could be….it does that to me.

    you bet gas is a sign of lactose intolerance. cut out all dairy for a week
    and see if it helps. all you got to lose is gas, lol.

    Read labels. If the product includes “whey” as an ingredient, don’t
    eat it as whey is a component of milk. A while back my daughter
    was having stomach problems and I took her to a
    gastroenterologist. She was tested for lactose intolerance and the
    test found her exactly on the border. The doctor told her to avoid
    all milk products as well as anything with whey in it. If she had no
    problems during the period that she avoided these products, then
    she probably was lactose intolerant and uses Lactaid whenever
    she eats anything with milk in it.
    Good luck
