You need to contact your doctor. I had the same symptoms and issues with Water and Protein around week two. It turned out I was severely dehydrated. After receiving several bags of IV fluids (3 to be exact) I was doing much better the next day. Although I still can't drink those horrible shakes. I hope you feel better soon.

I did research on making my own clear drinks for post-op, without having to buy the expensive ready-to-drink Protein drinks. ProSource Plus may help you. They have an unflavored one that dissolves in cold or hot liquids.
