About Dr Janice Wong
Breath hydrogen and methane tests are used to determine intolerances to both lactose (the sugar found in milk) and/or fructose (the sugar found in honey and many fruits). Three separate breath tests are required with the initial test being a control test using lactulose (a mild laxative). This will determine whether you are a hydrogen or methane producer to ensure the correct gas is measured on subsequent testing. 15% of patients do not produce hydrogen and methane needs to be measured instead.
The breathalyser used at the Cambridge Specialist Centre only detects hydrogen when it is breathed out from the lungs. If the initial lactulose test identifies that you do not produce hydrogen, then methane testing will be used and the sealed samples will be sent to Auckland for analysing.
Testing occurs over three separate days.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was referred to Dr Janice Wong due to poorly control asthma. She conducted a very thorough examination in a professional and friendly manner.
She then organised investigations and changes in treatment that have resulted in much better control of my asthma.
