Gluten intolerant but have another problem with dairy

i have no clue whats going on.I have been gluten free for 6 years now . but  i have been having the same symptoms i get when i have gluten the  diarrhea, vomiting, stomach ache, gas, nasal congestion, .  my doctor told me to do a food diary for a week so i did. according to my food diary dairy was the issue so she told me to cut out dairy 30 days and then  i can add it back but if i do make sure i take a lactaid  well the lactaid did not work and lactose free milk did not work. i cant even eat the ruffle chedder chips without getting sick.  iv been to the gi doctor and the lactose test was negative and milk allergy is negative.  So if  thats the case why cant my body handle dairy. by cutting out the dairy it has helped alot.  in the morning i go back to the Gi doctor but i think its just going to be a waist of time and money. is there a milk protein intolerance test? i guess i can say im just frustrated and confused. at this point i want to know the why but i know there is a problem and im tired of the nothing is causing it so im not sure why your reacting

Yes, it doesn't seem fair. I even tried goat cheese but found to just stay away. It appears to be common depending how reactive your body is to it, and it seems enough that its a problem. I even tried lactose free, but I think it is the casein. I'd suggest looking at food "diet by blood type" that may help.

Try searching for casein sensitive enteropathy.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
