Constipation can cause several problems so your Dr might be right. Also, using Lactose seems to help most of the time.
Yes, you can have gallbladder problems without pain. Have the HIDA scan to see if that's the problem.
How is your diet? Are you drinking plenty of water and getting a lot of fiber? Both can help with constipation.
ya drinking a lot of water and gatorade, after i take the lact, i drink a 17oz bot of water and that gets things flushed out. But i have been regular for some time now, but still having indegestion issues.
I would recommend you stop the Gatorade. It contains alot of sugar and that can cause bacterial build up, which can lead to inflammation.
When we have digestive issues we really need to keep track of what we're putting in our bodies and how our bodies react to those things.
How is your diet? Do you eat greasy foods, what about anything that contains gluten? Breads, baked goods and many other foods can contain gluten and some of us are sensitive to it.
Talk to your Dr about gluten and ask about testing to see if you're either allergic to it or sensitive to it.
Like i said, i had a uppder endo and was tested for all those gluten and other intolerance stuff. Except lactose
So im going to cut the dairy and see if that helps before the test
