Protein problems

OMG I cannot find any protein that I like.  I have tried all the Necter flavors, all the BA all the Celebrate Unjury chicken.

I gag and puke.  If I drink milk with powder milk I get gas and the runs with major pains and sweats.
I drink Lactose Milk I get same problem with or without powder mix.  

I am so exhausted on this search.  I have tried Muscle milk light and can force it down but it takes all day and only 20g.  I have the same with adkins its only 15g.  Isopure made me so thirsty it didn't help.

I am so worried about having issues and losing my hair and energy.  I did the surgery to help increase my energy not make it worse.

I know a lot of the protein drinks can be blech.  Have you tried the EAS AdvantEdge Carb Control protein drinks?  They're OK but only 17 g.   I drink 1 cup of Calorie Countdown chocolate milk and mix it with one scoop of Isopure Zero Carb Powder.   I blend it in my Blender Bottle and I think it tastes yummy - and for 1 cup, it's 31 g of protein.   Might be worth giving it a try.  Are you taking Biotin for your hair?

I am not a huge fan of the protein drinks either, the flavored isopure made me want to throw up but I can tolerate the unflavored if I blend it with some fruit. I am also able to tolerate the premier protein drinks from Costco in the chocolate flavor (it is not to sweet and no chalky aftertaste), it is 30g protein in a box. Also, if you are a caffeine drinker the Click expresso drink powder is pretty tasty... Good luck!
