no way! it's very easy with rice protein.
but yes I would second your suggestions, make sure you're getting enough total calories as well (looks like about 1500 you're getting right now, is that enough for you? are you male, female, height, weight?)
and also enough protein (personally 25% of calories from quality protein works for me). And to make sure all your nutrients are covered, a complete green meal or multivitamin.
and, something that helped for me, besides putting fat in the balance at about 25% of calories, was to get a tiny bit of saturated fat, about 10 grams of saturated fat per day, from fresh coconut or coconut oil. something about the unsaturated/saturated fat balance, but my body in particular likes having a bit of that in balance.
hope that you feel better!
