what does it feel like

what does it feel like when you are lactose intolerent( sp ck) i was feeling great this morning and for lunch i had a little cheese and a sip of milk and now i hurt like all get out. is this the feeling you get and what is the answer . i love milk and chees and is about all i can eat but now i am finding that it makes me hurt . i cant live on viatims and water along. vicki

I won't say it is the same for everyone but I had some lactose intolerance when I was on the St V milk and powdered milk protein shakes.  I felt very bloated and gassy, like a tick about to pop. I would also have nausea and diarrhea.  I can handle the dairy products in moderation. I still drink my skim milk and it will still give me a little nausea.  (but that is OK becasue it takes away any cravings I may be having) .  Hope you find an answer and feel better.

Unfortunately I am very lactose intolerant.  My main symptoms are diarrhea, nausea,gas.  I don't have pain just a feeling of an upset stomach.  Are you doing any protein drinks?  If so, be careful of the ones that list lactose/milk concentrates.  Hope you get to feeling better!! Peg
