You could be : Lactose intolerant, have celiac disease, or other food allergies. There is also the possibility of gall bladder disease without gallstones (acalculous cholecytitis) a hida scan or nmri could detect the latter. Pancreatic problems where not enough pancreatic enzymes are produced are also possible. Please see a gastroenterologist.
