Could I be lactose intolerance?

So I love to drink milk will probably have a cup or two every day. I've been noticing lately every time I have milk even with cereal or protein shakes etc or just drink it plain my stomach will hurt really really bad. And I feel like throwing up I never do but it's been doing this for a solid two or three months now.


My mom and sister used to be lactose intolerance but grew out of it.


It's just milk when I eat Greek yogurt or cheese etc. my stomach never hurts so could I be lactose intolerance?

    Might not be intolerant, just sensitive. Try cutting it out for a week and see what happens. This is why I cut out breakfast cereals, but I still have 1/2 cup milk spaced out over the day (in tea/coffee etc), and have 1/2 cup yogurt for breakfast.

    I don't think I'm intolerant, but either way, that painful, bloated feeling was horrible.
