milk causing diarrhea

[Guest guest]

KRISTIN,

NO I DON'T THINK IT WAS THE MILK AS i JUST HAD A LITTLE BIT OF

CHEDDAR CHEESE AND ITS HAPPENED WHEN I HAD NO DAIRY BUT NOTICED AS I

AM HEALING AND I TAKE MOM IT OCCURS AFTER I TAKE MOM ABOUT 3 TO 6 OR

MORE HOURS AFTER. I REALLY HAVEN'T GONE BACK TO MILK AND HAVEN'T

EVEN TRIED MY RICE MILK. I DID CHEAT ONCE AND HAD A PIECE OF TOAST

BUT HAD NO REACTION AND IT WAS A WHILE AGO. ITS ONLY SINCE I AM

HEALING AT FIRST THE SURGEON WANTED ME TO HAVE LOOSE STOOLS BUT NOW

SAID TO NOT TAKE THE MOM FOR A DAY OR 2 AND I DID GO BUT THEN TOOK

MOM AT A LOW DOSE AND AGAIN DIARRHEA AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN

CONSTIPATED EVEN BEFORE SURGERY BUT SINCE HE IN LARGED MY OPENING

WITH A GRAFT I MIGHT NOT NEED MOM. HE DISCOVERED WHEN DOING A

COLONOSCOPY THAT MY RECTAL OPENING WAS CONSTRICTING AND SAID I

NEEDED SURGERY RIGHT AWAY OR I WOULD END UP WITH A COLOSTOMY. ITS

TERRIBLE SURGERY AND I STILL HAVE A WAY TO GO. MAYBE ITS BEEN MY

PROBLEM ALL ALONG BUT TIME WILL TELL. I AM VERY GOOD STAYING AWAY

FROM THE THINGS I SHOULD. I HAVE LOST WEIGHT AND AM WORKING ON

GETTING MY STRENGTH BACK AND TRYING TO GAIN SOME WEIGHT. HE ALSO

SAID NOT TO GET CONSTIPATED BUT TO CUT WAY BACK ON MOM WHICH I HAVE

BEEN TRYING BUT NOW I WILL TRY GOING WITHOUT IT A DAY OR 2 AND IF I

FEEL I AM GETTING CONSTIPATED I WILL TRY MOM AGAIN. NICE TALKING

WITH YOU. BEST ALWAYS MARG

Marg,

sometimes they give high doses of antibiotics during surgery which can cause diarrhea, a probiotic would probably be good for you to balance the normal gut flora...........If the PH is off then the alkalinity can burn or sting also. When there's diarrhea, it's a sign somethings off balance..................
