As so many of us, I too am lactose intolerant; I can't touch dairy ANY time, not just after a course of antibiotics.
Actually, antibiotics are very difficult for me. I've tried them ALL, and found that Cipro was the only one my tummy can tolerate.
The worst attacks come on if I consume too many fats. It's truly the biggest trigger.
It's very confusing, I know. I used to tolerate dairy just fine; it wasn't that long ago that I consumed large quantities of cheese and my very fave, frozen yogurt -- YUM! -- but there's no way I could touch the stuff now. If you can tolerate soy products, that's been a Godsend for me -- soy butter, soy milk, soy cream cheese, soy cheddar, soy ice cream, even soy coffee creamer (Soy Coffeemate is AWESOME). When we go to Tino's pizza parlor, I pack my own soy mozzarella and give it to the waitress when I order my pizza.
Stay with the fiber, both soluble and insoluble; it's important. I'm a D, but I still have to have lotsa fiber, not only for my IBS but for my diverticulosis.
Good luck.
