You do not say where you are located. If you are in Ontario you might try posting this on the Ontario forum. Everyone there has had to be on opti

I had an allergic reaction to my protein shakes. They were made where shellfish  was prepared and I am allergic to shellfish. My lips would swell up and my mouth got itchy.

Thank you for the replies, I researched online and this has happend to others. My nurse/dietician advised to stop drinking them and to stick with 100g chicken and egg whites.
