What Could Be The Reason For Having Chest Pain And Tightening Of My Chest And Throat?

Hello, Im 37 starting protein shakes and protien juices as a supplement to diet. I have tried numerous name brands lactose free, gluten free, surgar free. Six star, unjury, eas, muscle milk, isopure, nectar, beverly international, criosport. Everytime no matter what I try i get ver bad chest pain and tightening of my chest and throat. I really need this diet to work becuase I will be having surgery soon and this is crucial to my success before and after surgery. Any suggestion why this is happening or any suggestion of what can work?

Hi. If all the things you mentioned are causing a problem , there is no way you can continue them. This is due to allergy of some sort may be due to its contents or preservative. Why not to go for a test of blood / Serum protein - total , albumin and globulin? If they are normal . in the range, You may not these supplements at all even for the success of surgery. If still needed your Doctor may prescribe intravenous ones.
