What Type Of Dairy Problem Is This?

Thankfully my Celiac test was negative, even though I was sure that was it. But now I'm starting to really believe it is a dairy thing.

Last night I went to a restaurant and got some Alfredo pasta, about 20 minutes later the lower left part of my stomach kills, and then I got diarrhea. I noticed this same problem when I eat regular mac and cheese. So is this more likely lactose intolerance, or allergy to whey? If it could be either, how could I figure it out?

It could be either. Lactose intolerance usually happens within the first few hours of ingesting dairy. My brother in law who is casein intolerant usually gets symptoms the next day but everyone is different. Your doctor can run a lactose intolerance test. Also keep in mind that unfortunately there can be false negatives with celiac testing (my blood work was negative but had a postive endoscopy)and non celiac gluten sensitivity and gluten intolerance will not show up as positive on testings. So if you still are not improving, a gluten free trial may help!

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
