protein shakes causing nausea
RNY on 02/24/12
I felt nauseous with every protein drink up till recently and still can't handle even a small portion of a protein bar. Post op I noticed a clear nasal drip after drinking or eating anything. It stops a few minutes after finishing my meal. I mentioned this to friends and have had several tell me that they do this even though they have never had WLS. I just found it odd that I started this issue after WLS.

I am half the person I was in 2008.

I've also gone onto pea protein because I can't stomach any of the ones in my cupboard( pre surgery I really though people were carrying on when they wrote this- I ate those thoughts!) there's no funky smell and I can drink it without gagging and shuddering.
