hello folks,
i have to get a hydrogen breath test for lactose intolerance in a few weeks. i am wondering if anyone can provide some insight on the side effects i might experience...
i am told that i will be drinking the lactose equivalent of one quart of milk. i can handle the cramps and diarrhea that will probably follow, but i have this nausea/vomiting phobia and so i am wondering if these are common side effects of the test. i don't usually get severly nauseous after consuming lactose, but i'm very nervous about the potential nausea.
thanks to anyone who can help out,
--kath
Was just wondering how your test went? Did you have any nausea/vomiting? I too have this phobia & it's awful so I understand & hope yours was fine. I have one this month.
Oh yeah, what happens to you IF you have a positive results test?
