Sucha First of all Congratulations on having your surgery this Monday. May the luck of the Irish be with you.  Second, Those are the signs for a lot of things stomach flu, even nerves. I have never had any of the protein in a can. I love the chocolate Unjury and the unflavored and the vanilla. I guess you would say I love Unjury and I mix it with water and ice and it is terrific tasting. It's 100% pure whey completely digested. It sits really well on the tummy for me. I hope you find out the problem soon. I'm sure everything will be ok. There are so many different kinds of protein. I sure you will find one you like and sets well with you.
Sending you all kinds of positive vibes and well wishes for a perfect surgery and a pain free and speedy recovery.

Sucha I'm wondering which canned protein you are using?  First off, check the sugar alcohol that is in the can.  Sugar alcohols are very difficult to tolerate.  They cause all the symptons you are describing.  Secondly is the protein whey or soy.  I have a much harder time digesting whey protein, but no problems with soy.  Whey also causes me gas and cramping. Just a couple of things to check out.  Best of luck to you on Monday. Stephanie

Thank You for you reply. The Protein is Slim Fast " Low Carb Diet) My doctor's nuturtionist suggest it. It was this or Opti Fast.No sugsr alcohol. Says its a "milk protien concentrate" oh my not good for my stomach.  What kind of soy protein do you use and where do you buy it?  Thank You for your Caring!      Sucha
