I can't stand it anymore. I kill 10 Pokemon on victory road and go up by less than 1000 exp points. I stand on one island and use the vs seeker on 5 trainers at once and have to battle them all 5 times to get one level. I never passed the E4 as a kid and this is why. I have a good team but the highest level one is 51 and I would like them all to be at 60. I'm about to just say screw it and go challenge the E4 anyway. Restarting would be more fun at this point.

For several months now I thought I had become horrifically lactose intolerant. If I ate any kind of lactose I would get sick within minutes. However, I continued to eat butter and had no problems at all. And then almond milk started doing the same thing. I would also sometimes eat something that had no obvious dairy in it and I would be horribly ill. I just figured out recently that it might be the emulsifiers in these products that are setting me off not the dairy itself.

I am not sure if I am lactose intolerant at all now or if it was the emulsifiers all along. How do you go about figuring this out? I'm not really sure if its an allergy or not. The reaction is instant and lasts for about an hour or longer depending on how sick I get but there's no hives, or breathing trouble. The problem is that it seems to happen with smaller and smaller amounts of emulsifiers. Two months ago I could eat chocolate chip cookies and yesterday I got so sick from the same brand.

I also know that there are multiple kinds of emulsifiers but they all seem to set me off. I am having trouble finding a common link.
