Sorry, just had to add something to your post. I wouldn't ever add bcaa to a protein powder ever.
Reason is, protein powder is a combination of (from memory) about 17 amino acids.
BCAA is basically taking protein powder, extracting 4 of those 17 amino acids out through a manufacturing process and keeping those as a separate powder.
The 4 aminos in bcaa make up a quarter of the weight of protein in protein powder. So 100g of any protein powder will always contain 25g of bcaa by default.
Companies use this lack of knowledge about them to market their products as being better than others, when they didn't actually do anything. It's like selling coffee and putting on the side "contains 90% natural water".
People think because bcaa cost so much that having protein powder with them added in, they are getting better value, but the cost of bcaa is actually in removing/extracting it rather than the ingredient itself.
This is why 99% of people never need bcaa if they are getting adequate protein from either food or powders.
I guess it is handy for people like me who can't consume protein powders - due to issues with whey.
Have you tried some non-whey based proteins?
Place i get all mine from offers alternate proteins in form of egg, pea, rice + soy.

From what i've read, they have a slightly different texture/mixability and may not taste as good - but they are a reasonable alternative.
I can't eat eggs (intolerant), I won't eat anything soy based (estrogen) and pea protein isn't worth the price - same with rice proteins.
I'm just going to have to stick with meats!
I think you just need to give up on consuming, everything seems to give you one issue or another.
It's very frustrating believe me! My diet is pretty simple now and revolves around white rice, salmon, red meats, chicken, vegetables and olive oil! That being said I'd rather eat like this than feel like crap eating anything that might set me off with brain fog etc.
