(i'm not worried but ya i was just wondering) thanks Link to comment
RayKay Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Well, too much of anything rich like ice cream or chocolate or milk will have you feeling pretty ill! I don't think it would be an allergy, but you may just have an intolerance (like lactose intolerance) for the dairy or sugar that these items can contain, and you should only consume them in small quantities anyway since they are rich and full of sugar and fats. But again too much of anything like that will have you feeling rather icky! Link to comment
mysterious one Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 when i eat them i don't have alot, it takes me 3 days to eat a full chocolate bar on a good day, and i have a glass of milk usually everyday or so but i don't have much, i don't know apparently last time i ate somethign chocolate my b/f also said i got a rash on my neck/throught. you may be right thanks Link to comment

There are also milks out there that are for people with lactose intolerance, and things you can eat before to reduce lactose reactions. Also, things like yogurt tend to not cause that reaction.

Smarie Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Definitely talk to your doctor,....the first thing I thought to was lactose intolerant, but that wouldnt give you a rash on your throat I dont think. Maybe its a little combination of both. Try drinking lactaid and see if that gives you the same effect milk does. Link to comment
