Do you get a lot of protein each day for you muscles? My biceps are bothering me. About a month ago my left bicep wouldn't let me move my arm without pain. That happened for several days and is better now. Now my right one is making itself known.

I do not eat well. I don't eat meat and rarely eat chicken or fish so that is not good. I used to make a smoothie every morning with fruit, protein powder and sometimes collagen powder. Then so many things started making my stomach hurt. The NP for my DR. gave me a script for Sucralfate to heal an ulcer if there was one. I took it for a couple weeks and now I seem to be about to eat and it not hurt. I lost 6 lbs when that was going on.

I will try my smoothies again with the powders. I do drink Ensure 30 grams of protein shake. When you can't exercise that makes it worse.
