DIARRHEA: May be you have lactose intolerance. Cheese in pizza contain lactose. If so, milk and dairy products also will cause diarrhea, flatulence, etc. Lactose intolerance can be complete, partial or intermittent. Stop eating pizza for few days, also avoid dairy for the same period, drink electrolyte solution e.g. Pedialyte, will feel better.

Could be the cheese.: Are you lactose intolerant? You could be. The cheese contains lactose. Do you get this effect if you drink milk?
