Suddenly Developing Problems With Dairy?

I haven't been diagnosed Celiac (negative blood test) but I am gluten-free for almost 2 weeks now.  I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance about 10 years ago but that's progressively gotten better the past few years.  I've found I've been able to eat more dairy foods without issue, unless I have too many the same day or certain things (like a milkshake).  Now that I've gone gluten-free though, I'm suddenly having diarrhea! (didn't have stomach problems with gluten)  I think maybe it's the dairy.  Why would this suddenly become a problem?  It seems common, but I don't understand why.  Can someone explain?  I'm a bit hesitant to go dairy-free because I first want to make sure I can't tolerate gluten.  If I do both at once I won't really know and may be cutting one out unnecessarily.  Thanks!

I've read that it's not uncommon to temporarily have lactose issues until your gut is healed.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
