I am currently on, as of last Thursday afternoon, an entirely lactose-free diet. Due to me feeling ill Thursday after not much milk at all. I need to change my meal on the plane to lactose-free, and on the coach from Adelaide to Melbourne but I do at least have 148 lactase pills if I'm desperate.

One problem I found with this - my travel sickness pills had lactose in! Luckily, they were the only ones you can get with lactose in, so now I have some different ones. But it wasn't really what I needed to be spending my Saturday doing. I also found soya milk tastes really disgusting. Well, no, I lie. Waitrose unsweetened soya milk tastes disgusting. Waitrose sweetened soya milk is actually quite nice.

I feel fine so far but it's easier to disprove lactose-intolerance than it is to prove it. Although it would be more helpful if I could experiment with introducing it in and finding my tolerance but going to Australia is going to much that up a bit. At least, as mum pointed out, I've found out before I go. And my aunt knows as well and is prepared to take me to the supermarket when I get there.
