Today I learned something I didn’t want to know.
Today I found out something about myself which I’d rather wasn’t true.
Today the doctor produced the paperwork to show me what I didn’t want to see.
…I have lactose intolerance…
(and maybe gluten intolerance as well, but that needs more testing).
Okay, so it could be a whole lot worse. People get told awful things by doctors all the time. That really doesn’t stop it sucking.
I am now the reluctant owner of a packet of lactostop tablets. For approximately 25cents (European) a go I can apparently drink milk without side effects.
This could turn into an expensive hobby.
Sorry to hear that. Hope you are ok.
Egad. I hate going to the doctor, so my sympathies. Lactose intolerance isn’t so bad, though. Many in my fam have it. Best Wishes.
I was showing symptoms of lactose intolerance and a gluten allergy, but I wasn’t always that way. I think I damaged my stomach after using a lot of OTC pain relievers and some antibiotics so I was able to “fix” mine by taking some supplement and laying off the sugar, dairy, wheat, stuff…. If you are seriously lactose intolerant or have an allergy I don’t think it will help.
