Sick Day

If I had any doubt that I can’t have dairy products anymore, I have my answer today.  I stopped at Taco Bell last night and got some tacos to bring over to Becca’s work and have dinner with her.  I remember thinking that the cheese on the tacos probably won’t be a big dea.  Boy was I wrong!  Within an hour from leaving for home, I started getting a dull headache. Now this morning, it is like when I have had what I thought were migraines in the past.  I am going to stay in bed today…

    I hope you feel better soon. It’s a pain that you can’t have dairy products. No ice cream. Life would be so much more challenging if that occurred with me.

    Thanks. It sucks, but luckily, I haven’t been one that gets all gaga over ice cream too often, well, except for chocolate chip cookie dough blizzards…

    Have you tried any of these?
    Lactase additives are available from drug stores without a prescription. One form is a liquid for use with milk. A few drops are added to a quart of milk, and after 24 hours in the refrigerator, the lactose content is reduced by 70 percent. The process works faster if the milk is heated first, and adding a double amount of lactase liquid produces milk that is 90 percent lactose free.
    A more recent development is a lactase tablet that helps people digest solid foods that contain lactose. One to three tablets are taken just before a meal or snack.
    It might help for Mexican and Itallian food nights
