A member asked:
Tested + for fecal reducing sugars. still has mucus in nappies/screaming/reflux/choking etc on lf formula. could it be cows milk protein allergy too?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: milk protein allergy can cause irritability and vomiting. The sugar in the stool on a lactose free formula may be pointing to another sugar intolerance such as sucrose. I suggest further investigation of the reason for sugar in the stool on a lactose free formula. Is there an issue with sugar absorption?
