Can you tolerate skim milk after rny?

I literally had one sip of fat free milk and literally thought I'd die. My pouch was so angry with me telling at me. The worst heartburn that wrapped all the way around to my back and down into my breasts. I was sweating all over my entire body. All I could do was go sit on the toilet with the garbage can in my hands trying to get it out which ever end it came out of first. It has finally passed after about an hour. I don't know what you would consider this episode but I will not be drinking milk in any form anymore. I'm officially scarred!!!!

I am currently 6 weeks post-op. I didn't try skim milk til week 3 and since then I drink a ton of milk! I think being lactose intolerant is pretty common amongst RNY people. Sorry you feel crappy!

I was never lactose intolerant before RNY but proactively drank only lactaid since surgery with no problems. I would suggest waiting a few days and trying again with a lactose-free milk.

I switched to soymilk when I had my surgery and I like it. 

I am now lactose intolerant after rny. That's the only part that sort of sucks.

I have been drinking skim milk everyday in my protein shakes. Seems to be ok. Guess I would notice if I had a reaction like yours. My problem is for the last couple of days I have no appetite at all! I don't even want the shake but am forcing myself for the protein. Yuck!!!

I dont have near that reaction, but since I started making my shakes with Carbmaster milk (which is lactose free), when I run out and use skim milk, I just feel off for a while.  Kind of nauseous, head is a little cloudy.

Don't you just LOVE carbmaster???? I love the carbmaster yogurts too!  I stick one in the freezer for an hr or two and it is so smooth and creamy and yummy!  The stats are amazing.  LOVE it.  Have been lactose intolerant most of my life with regards to milk and now I LOVE it.   

I have to put Lactaid (just got the Walmart brand yesterday - tastes the same) in my morning protein drinks. I tried almond milk and soy milk, but those both have calcium carbonate, which we can't use and contribute to kidney stones.

Yep, I tolerate it fine.
