Could I Be Lactose Intolerant?

396545383 I try to avoid eating too much dairy because i have acid reflux disease and i tend to find that very heavy and dairy laden foods is one of my triggers for heartburn. Today for some reason i had yogurt with breakfast, mac & cheese for lunch, vegetable lasagna with caeser salad for dinner. I now find myself having stomach cramps, very bad bloating, and gas. I think i might be lactose intolerant but im not sure, i'm in college like 5 hours away from home but i have my regular yearly checkup with my doctor in February so i"ll probably discuss it with her then but for now should i avoid dairy?

  2. Daniel - Cheese is very hard to digest and can cause bloating.

    Stress can also cause some of the symptoms.

    Drinking plenty of water and exercise will help.

    Keep away from caffiene drinks such as coffee, coke, etc.
