Tummy troubles

[ohatch]

Im just wondering, would milk products cause my gastritis and IBS to act up? I was diagnosed with both.  I ate a cup of ice cream the other day and my stomach cramped for 2 hours, and I was also very bloated.  I have the same symptoms when I eat raw, leafy vegetables and some fruits.


This discussion is related to Gastritis and Bloating?.

Gastritis? Maybe, because calcium requires more acid to digest than most other foods, but otherwise no. IBS? Yes, if you're lactose intolerant.

But let me get this straight: bloating and stomach pains brought on you eat fatty or highly fibrous foods? Request from your doctor a gastric emptying exam, since these may also be symptoms of gastroparesis. Delayed gastric emptying also explains the gastritis. An h. pylori check should also be done. You may also want to explore the possibility of gallbladder issues.

Good luck.

You could possibly be lactose intolerant. I would get tested for that. I was just diagnosed with gastric emptying. Basically I feel full really fast, want to vomit sometimes after eating, etc. My h. pylori was negative, but try to get some more tests. done.
