Two Questions-Sore Tongue and Protein Drink At Night
I have had a sore tongue for several days. I don't see anything on it. Is there a deficiency or some other thing that could cause it? I've never had one that has lasted so long.
Also, I am having a problem getting in my night time protein drink. No matter what I have, hot or cold, it makes me gassy and sick, sometimes I even dump. I can have the exact same drink in the morning with no issues at all but whatever I have at night makes me sick as a dog. I know I should just give up the ghost and not have one at night but I always forget in the daytime and I need to keep my numbers up.
This hasn't always been the case, although it has been on and off for a while. Now it is everytime I have one.

The night time protein drink - seriously, it seems like the easiest fix would be not to have one at night. If you need a second protein drink, can you have it earlier in the day? Like an afternoon snack? Or can you have some other protein snack at night?

I know I have to cut out the night time shake but I have been drinking it since I had my surgery. Usually in the cooler weather I have a hot one and when it's warm I have a cold one. I guess I need to have it earlier. I will try Greek Yogurt at night and see if that makes a difference.

I would switch to yogurt or something for the evening protein and if you want, try the protein drink again in a month or two. Sometimes it really makes no sense why we tolerate something or don't tolerate something and you just have to go with it.
