Cows milk will make me very sick, but cheese is my weakness. I can tolerate (hard) cheese and a bit of butter, but everything else... Nope. Not even ice cream. Upside is I can eat all the cheese I want and not get stopped up. ๐๐ซ
Wait.... your version of lactose intolerance is you get "stopped up"?!? My version is dairy-based Draino pressure washing the bowl in brown noisomeness.
Oh, no. Sorry for the confusion. My husband, who is NOT lactose intolerant, will get constipated after eating lots of cheese while I will not.
Besides the loose bowel movements afterwards, I can also do a fair impersonation of one of the kids from a horror film (the exorcist, maybe) and have it spew from the other end.
Normies get stopped up by cheese, us intolerants counteract the constipation with explosive diarrhea.
The upside is that the best high-dairy foods (ice cream and macaroni) are pretty easy to throw up, so there's that I guess. I'm not as badly affected as I when I was a kid but I loved macaroni then and I still do. Lactaid pills were a lifechanger.
