I have had the metallic taste in my mouth for years and at times it feels like I am salivating more when that happens, unfortunately it hasn't affected my appetite.

Ditto . . . except not sure about the salivating thing and it's only been nine months.

Rivergirl, I also agree with the salivating.... where I must pull over in the car becuase I feel it's going to make me throw up.  Ewwwww... sooo gross, but it's reality.

I love life but I'm finding it harder to do .. one millimetre at a time.

Hi All,

I have been experiencing the metallic taste now for the past month or so. I am 8 weeks post op today, after retrosigmoid surgery. I will try the zinc lozenges in hopes that they relieve it. Intitally, post op I had taste issues, ie: foods not tasting good at all, then the metallic taste started on my surgery side about a month ago. I love to eat and enjoy my food, so I hope it's a temporary thing. I appreciate the input from everyone.
