I am not sure that my dd will have lactose intolerance but getting pretty desperate for ideas. I am not sure if her symptoms fit so please tell me if I am totally barking up the wrong tree. Just clutching at straws really. She has suffered tummy problems from dot (gas/constipation/occassional cramps) but has many allergies. Over the years she ended up on movocol to keep her regular which seems to work. So diarrhea is not a symptom. However, stomach pains have become too constant recently. She has had problems/stomach cramping prior too and all through the Easter hols, suffering with various pains. Worst in the mornings -groaning and hardly able to get up/get ready for school. Eases back most days at school but pain stays in milder form, hurts at night to the extent of heat packs every evening in bed. Some nights, up until midnight in discomfort, other nights not as bad. But it is always hurting. She is 12. This is constant. Been doctors tues, urine test fine. Blood test today so will be awaiting results for cealiac, anemia, liver etc. When in the worst pain she has felt shaky, sick and had occassional reflux. Any ideas? Should I be experimenting with low lactose milk products? Any tips if I try it out for a couple days? Where to buy? Is it safe for children with Nut allergy? Or do you think this is not lactose intolerance? Any advise welcome..........
