I have been drinking protein shakes since before my surgery and had no problems with them. However for the last two weeks I can hardly tolerate them. I feel sick to my stomach and they almost make me gag to drink them. Has anyone had this happen to them. I am 7 weeks post-op today.

What about them bothers you? The taste? Texture?

Are you making them with milk? You may be lactose intolerant now, that happens sometimes after surgery.

I had to rotate different brands over last few years. Not sure if my body got sensitive to some fillers but shakes I could tolerate 1 year ago I can't now. But shakes that made me gag 2 years ago - are just fine now.

I had my surgery on May 7, 2013, and have the same issue. Any help would be appreciated.
