Protein makes my stomach hurt

I can't eat any meat or drink protein shakes. I was ok at first but it's been downhill the last 7 or 8 months. The thought of eating a lot of foods doesn't agree with me. I had a gastric sleeve on April 23, 2019. I tried the vegan alternatives and they are not as bad but I just get sick thinking about eating them.
 
I am so sorry to hear that you feel like your doctor isn't listening to you. That's the WORST feeling, truly it is. This is your body, your health, your happiness, and your life, so you must stand up for yourself and make sure you're getting all the medical care you deserve. Don't let yourself settle for anything less than that. Have you considered taking an assertive friend or family member with you to appointments to advocate on your behalf?
