I'm 7 days post-op, and although I advised my nutritionist and doctor that I had issues with dairy products, including eggs, I was still advised to used the whey protein until I start my pureed diet. I don't think I'm getting the protein because it comes right back out, if you know what I mean. I switched to the soy protein powder and even though I can keep it down, it still gives me a slight rumble in my tummy. Any other suggestions? 2wks is a long time to struggle with this issue, I need protein.
