Oral Thrush and Sciatica after surgery?

I am 2 weeks post-op Lap Gastric Sleeve and have lost 18 lbs. However, one week post-op I developed oral thrush and since have had a horrible time drinking my protein shakes - I gag on them. I am wondering if anyone has tried any other kinds of protein like the New Whey Liquid Protein that tastes more like juice and if anyone else is having my problem with the shakes. Also, about 4 days after surgery I started having horrible aching and pain in my right leg. I am having problems sleeping at night. I saw my primary care doctor and was told it should get better over time, but it seems to be getting worse. Any suggestions on how to improve this condition? You have all been so supportive and helpful during my journey - thank you!
