I'm feel quite sure I am not the only person to ask this question or have this problem. Since the surgery I have become extremely lactose intolerant. This is complicated by the fact I've never really liked the taste or texture of meat. I will eat some grilled chicken and I am beginning to enjoy some kinds of fish. But the idea of eating meat everyday for the rest of my life is pretty gross. So pre-surgery I was using a whey protein from GNC as a supplement. I tried using is post sugery with absolutely disastrous effects even with the lactose pills. I tried the local health food store for a spirulina based protein vanilla sample. I have to say that was gross. Generally I can just power through something if it must be done. Nothing could make that particular brand palatable. My best description is it smelled like a piece of lettuce threw up. So incredibly gross. So I find myself in dire need of help. I really need something that isn't too horrible but also won't break my bank. Any suggestions at all would be welcome. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am several days out from my surgery. April 6 is when I had it. I am having some discomfort when I hiccough or burp. I am trying to drink without adding air to my stomach. However I feel this is a totally losing battle as I have sleep apnea and I'm sure I get full of air every single night. My partner had the same surgery last year but has no real trouble either hiccoughing or burping? I'm not terribly concerned yet but my partner is a tad concerned. Am I the only one with this issue post -operative? I would massage my stomach to move the air around but even touching it is really painful still. Just looking for some feedback or comforting words of wisdom if anyone has any. Thanks.
