4. Lactose intolerance is one of the most poorly diagnosed things out there

There was no doubt in my case, milk was doing horrible things to me by the time I was five and I hated the stuff with a purple passion. Still do.

A trial of going dairy free won't cost anything and since you're eating a lot of yogurt, that could well be the problem. Yogurt is reduced lactose but not absent lactose. A week without any dairy products should tell you if that's the problem. If it is, don't despair, health food stores now carry a lot of vegan dairy substitutes, including yogurt.

I hope it turns out to be this easy to fix.
