Re the lactose meds, I thought that only worked if you take it at the same time as a food that triggers the intolerance, no?

Yes, lactase tablets are to be taken with dairy. I take it one time if I feel like I need it with my last cup of tea in the evening. Not every evening. It's mainly paranoia when the "what if?" kicks in.

I don't understand. Do you have a dairy product with your tea?

Sounds like you are doing really well. I'm super pleased to see this recent update.

With the dairy/lactase, I think you know your body and your instincts have been spot on. Taking lactase with your cup of tea won't do any harm. And if it did you'd know because you are very aware of what's going on in there.

Dairy gives me an icky feeling.

Nice. I have Yorkshire tea, one teaspoon of sugar, semi skimmed milk. Just got some crisps thinking ok no preservatives or added stuff. I can switch to these got home and checked and sunflower oil contains linalool. It's so confusing. Gonna eat them anyway.
