Hey all, I am not doing to well today and will prob have to go back to the hospital. I cannot get the metal taste out of my mouth and I heard that is not good, and I am feeling very swollen this morning. The pain has moved to my right side and all the way up my back. I am really concerned about this and please keep me in your prayers...I hope everyone is doing well.

P.S.  Just try to drink lots of juice, and eat mints and lots of fruit.  It helps some.

I dont think the metallic taste in you mouth is a serious issue.  When I dropped 50 of my meds overnight I a had the worst metallic taste in my my mouth for about 3 weeks.  It just about drove me nutz.  It totally suks I thought it was never gonna end , but it did.  Like I said it lasted about three weeks and then the nausea began for another two to three weeks..  it's just a part of the journey, but i will go away.  but it seemed like an eternity.  Just give it some time.......its just miserable.  like you have been chewing on a lead pipe. Its gross, but it goes away.

I know how you feel. My cat scan showed things and I cannot find out until Wed Sept. 5th. We will do this together. Think positively. It could be so many things that are not such a big deal. It may be a bad bacteria even. Stay postive. A metallic taste in the mouth is a common complaint and can be due to a variety of causes - from medication you may be taking to dental problems. In the absence of other symptoms, it is unlikely that a metallic taste in your mouth indicates serious disease. It is good to go and get it checked out however. Food poisoning can even cause this especially fish related foods. The pain may be gastrointestinal. Try not to worry. I know it is not easy believe me as I too am worried especially knowing I have the damn results coming and it is something. But people on this site have made me feel so much better that I am being hopeful. Take care and go to your doctors. Also drink lots of water as if it is any of the above that will really help.
