Need help with post-op diet

I have tried several shakes pre-op and many taste OK. But as I have read on these boards your taste buds change completely after surgery and many people complain about not being able to hold down their protein shakes. Also the "samples" now won't help me after surgery, and I want to be prepared for going home and getting my protein in right away after surgery. Has anyone tried the procel protein and UP CAL D as a NEW post-op? I already know that procel does not have alot of protein in each scoop compared to the regular shakes and is very expensive. But I am willing to pay the price if it will work. In the past, I have gagged on the CT scan drink and barium. I am afraid that the somewhat thick protein shakes post-op are going to make me barf. If you have had experience with this procel product your help would be appreciated. Thanks
