My pleasure! And unless the rules are different where you live, you don't need to see a doctor or get a prescription. Here (Belgium) you can easily get them from pharmacies or online.
It's same in the US too. Lactose pills are classified as "over the counter" (no Rx needed). Lactaid makes them and a generic version is usually available too.
It's over the counter here, so I don't NEED to see a doctor. But my doctor is a friend, so doesn't hurt to consult for free.
