gastroenteritis

3183328 tn?1351183517 Since sunday i've had almost every lactose intolerance symptom except vomiting, I really hope I don't vomit, but I've had diarrhea, gas, and cramps since then. Two days ago I pooped 6 times, yesterday 4, and today so far only once. I haven't been consuming any dairy whatsoever since Tuesday. Do you think I'm just trying to get rid of the extra lactose in my body?
Avatar f tn It could also be food intolerance, both food allergy and food intolerance can cause symptoms of nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain. The difference being in food allergy the IgE antibodies are increased. If symptoms are acute it can even be due to an infection, gastroenteritis. So, if your symptoms persist consult your doctor for an evaluation. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn My daughter is 14 months old and she has has watery diarrhea and vomitting. When she was born she was perfectly healthy, but once I had to return to work I began to give her formula and that's when she began to have these complications. She began to have watery diarrhea and vomit. I took her to the doctor and they said she had gastroenteritis, but it's been a while now and she is still the same? Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thank you.
Avatar n tn The causes related to nausea,diarrhea,abdominal pain are food poisoinng,gastroenteritis,stomach flu, lactose intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome etc.Parasitic infestations like amoebiasis and giardiasis will also cause watery stools, abdominal cramps,nausea,fever etc.She should take a light diet and drink plenty of water. See a Paediatrician.A clinical examination and tests like stool examination will help. Do keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar n tn There has been a recurring stomach bug going around , has she diarreha or fever or is it just vomiting ?Could be Gastroenteritis or Lactose intolerance ..I suspect the former. it may be a good idea to have her checked by the doctor again and speak to him of your concerns .
Avatar m tn Hi, welcome to the forum, vomiting and nausea can be a sign of infection of stomach known as gastroenteritis (often with diarrhea and vomiting), lactose intolerance (difficulty digesting the lactose in milk), indigestion, gas formation, obstruction etc. As you are vomiting you need to maintain water and electrolyte balance. Anti emetic, antibiotics, antispasmodics will help reduce symptoms against prescription.
Avatar f tn Sorry this is way off of our normal subject, but I was just wondering the signs of lactose intolerance and whether or not you can get this as you get older. I am wondering because I have had abdominal pain for the past about 4 days. And I mean it really hurts. Also my back kind of where my kidneys are. I also get nausea a little and spent this morning vomiting. I went to the doctor and he said I was free of infection, and I am not pregnant so he does not know.
1099201 tn?1338180918 I just turned 80, and have had some digestive issues, such as nausea, bloating and diarrhea during the last few years, often in connection with my hobby of running ultramarathons, which suggested a late-life onset of lactose intolerance. As an experiment, I started using the chewable lactase supplements (Lactaid, etc.) before meals, and that seems to have taken care of the problem, which seems like prima facie evidence of LI, although I haven't been tested or diagnosed.
Avatar n tn no bad aftertaste, though. is that still lactose intolerance? or could it be some other kind of dairy protein allergy?
Avatar f tn i have lactose intolerance and i am on a diet where i cant eat anything with milk not even if thrs just a little milk in a cookie recipe but lately i have been feeling like throwing up after i take lactaide if i go out i take it i feel like i have the flew but its off and on
Avatar f tn Due to improper digestion, white specks may appear in stools. Some people have severe lactose intolerance. They are not able to digest any dairy product that includes milk, cheese, butter etc. These products may appear as white specs in the stool. If his symptoms persist consult his doctor for an evaluation. Regards.

Avatar m tn I am in constant discomfort for 2 months straight, I am currently on day 5/10 on my antibiotic for this bacteria, but am still in pain, also I have a sudden onset of lactose intolerance, which is very strange since I can drink alot of milk wihtout an upset stomach before all this happends (diarreha maybe). I also did numerous blood test these days, I asked my doctor do I have HIV, he said it will be very bizzare because my lymphocytes level are in the normal range ( I am at 2.
1448936 tn?1363206346 The test for lactose intolerance is a hydrogen breath test but there is no reason to do that, all you need to do is to eliminate 100% of all lactose from your diet for 2 weeks and if that helps then you have lactose intolerance and if that doesn't help then you don't have lactose intolerace. It is normal to test for parasites.
Avatar f tn Hi, welcome to the forum, the possibilities in your case are gastroenteritis (often with diarrhea), a reaction to a medication, lactose intolerance (difficulty digesting the lactose in milk), indigestion, gas formation, infection, obstruction etc. We can not diagnose the exact cause without medical findings. You need to undergo stool examination and ultrasound to rule out the exact cause. Also take light food, maintain water balance as you may get dehydrated.
Avatar f tn I recently had a lactose intolerance breath test and it was negative. However, whenever I have lactose I feel bloated and constipated - more than usual (I have IBS-Constipation Type). Is it possible to not be lactose intolerant and still have difficulty digesting foods containing lactose? .
Avatar f tn Welcome to the gastroenterology community! Has he had his gall bladder removed? How long has this been going on for? Has he seen a doctor about this? It could be bacteria or lactose intolerance.
Avatar f tn I'm not sure whether constipation is associated with lactose intolerance. I have lactose intolerance and I certainly don't get constipated ;) I'm not as sensitive as you, as I can eat small amounts of lactose. If I eat too much lactose I get bloating, cramps, gas and diarrhea. Have you tried lactose-free milk? No lactose...only dairy. See how you react to that. Just don't buy Wal*Mart brand...I think they skimp on removing the lactose and leave some in the milk! LOL.
Avatar m tn I have also heard that Cataracts can get worse only for people with Lactose Intolerance. Although, I am of Japanese decent, I do not think I am Lactose Intolerant. My mother and father are not lactose intolerant. However, I am only 21 years old and I've heard lactose intolerance develops later on in life.
Avatar f tn But because of my intolerance i cant process dairy. Does anyone know what i should do? Or if the lactose intolerance goes away during pregnancy? And what affect could not having enough dairy have on the baby? Thanks everyone!
Avatar f tn I'm 29 weeks now and around 20 weeks I noticed that I would feel terrible eating my cornflakes and drinking milk....of course my biggest craving...Milk! The nausea,bloated feeling and constant burping feeling lasted about 4 hours after having it.I was told that most likely I was lactose intolerant due to pregnancy.In the mean time I have tried almond, soy milk and soy coconut milk......yucky. Best option to me is lactose free milk...not the same but better than nothing.
Avatar f tn Is it possible for a pregnancy to cause you to develop lactose intolerance? Ever since I entered my second trimester, every time I eat something with too much dairy it makes me vomit. I ate cheese fries and quesadillas and barely made it to the bathroom to puke, one morning I drank a glass of chocolate milk and was in the bathroom for an hour with terrible diarrhea shortly after and yesterday I had some ice cream and for the rest of the night I was nauseous. Has this happened to anyone else?
Avatar f tn Normally i have mild lactose intolerance( can have a little without it bring a problem)but when i'm pregnant it is really bad. I find i can have things with milk in if it is cooked.
