Can we talk protein shakes and vitamins
You can be alergic to dairy, or vanilla, or artificial sweeteners or flavors, etc etc etc.
I have a rapid heart beat when i ingest food that i am allergic to. Including whey, caseine, soy, vanilla, banana, etc etc...
It is difficult to find out what your are allergic to.

I have allergy to dairy. I use (there is plenty) non dairy proteins shakes.
Check Vega., Vega sport, Planet Fusion brands. Also Egg white proteins...

As Hala said, the problem may be the way you react to the sugar alcohols used as sweeteners in many of them. Do other "sugar free" products bother you? You might want to look at what kind of sweetener is in the ones that nother you and then try one that has a different kind of sweetener.
Do you have trouble drinking milk? You may be allergic to the milk protein. If all do the protein supplements you have tried are whey based, try one that is egg white based such as some of the Jay Robb brands (some of them are whey and some are egg white, so pay attention to the label).
Clearly you have NOT actually tried all of the available protein supplements, so how many is "all"? What kinds? (How many different brands, not just different flavors of one brand?)

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

if you are allergic to milk - milk proteins - your body may react the way it does..
why would anyone drink / eat food they are allergic to??

Vitamins and Protein Shakes are two different things. They both give you a 'racey heart'? The only common denominator between them might be artificial sweeteners. If you try the Jay Robb with Egg Protein as mentioned, he also uses Stevia, so that might help. You can buy it at Vitamin Shoppe if you have one of those near you. They also usually have single serve sample sizes in it. At least mine does.
