Marilyn,
It took me 4 months before I found a protein powder that I could keep down. I am allergic to Whey and found the same with soy. So someone suggested that I try egg. I did and I love it. I use Optimin. I combine chocolate and vanilla. Tastes just like a chocolate shake. It is great for me.
Another thing that you might try is increasing your fluid intake, change your exercise program, like add weights, Just change things around. I had a 6 week plateau. Another thing that was suggested was to start as if you had just had surgery. Go back to the beginning. We are all different. So check with your doctor and see what he/she thinks is the best for you. Maybe check with your dietian also.
