Default Behavior

Hi Yorkie owners,
I have a 5 year old Yorkie that I adopted back in April 2009 (she came into the vet clinic that I worked at..abused) Make a long story short I don't know much about her history, but this past May she had liver shunt surgery. After this surgery (Which she feels better) her personality has changed. When people approach her, she growls and if you are a man she tries to bite you. I don't know how to stop her from doing this. I've tapped her nose and have told her no. When I pick her up she starts barking non stop. I feel that she is protective of me and her sister a cairn terrier. I just don't know how to help her. I know there had to be a man in her past that must of hurt her. Any suggestions. Thanks
