I've never had any adverse reactions to any of the Protein Drinks. I've probably tried at least a dozen (sometimes have to grab one from a gas station because warm Protein drinks = ewwwww). I've never gotten nauseous either. I started using them a year ago for Breakfast on recommendation of my nutritionist. I don't like eggs and she wanted me getting protein in the morning so it seemed like a good alternative.

I never experienced vomiting from consuming Protein shakes. From my discussion with many who took Protein Shakes before and after surgery, vomiting is not a common problem.

For me after surgery, my taste buds change as it does for many. Things that I could tolerate before tasted awful after surgery. So it is important to experiment until you find a shake you can tolerate.

I've been drinking shakes every day for over a year. Sometimes two a day. I have never gotten sick from them, and I've tried several kinds. Sometimes I encounter one I don't really like, or it doesn't sit well, but it's never made me physically sick.

I am four days out and I have been drinking clear Protein drinks. I tried a Premier Protein yesterday and it made my stomach hurt. I diluted it by half and tolerated it much better but still am sticking to clear Protein for a couple more days. I say listen to your body, if it hurts, don't drink the shakes and stick to clear protein. Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
