It's not a loss of taste, it's that things taste bad. I had the no taste thing for maybe 2 or 3 weeks right after I had it. Then like almost two months later stuff started tasting bad. It's actually smell but it makes stuff taste bad.

It's tough to describe but it's the same bad smell/taste for everything. Foul, rotten, and chemical are words I use to try do describe it. But it's not a smell I'd ever smelled before. Strong smells or smells that are pervasive like coffee and popcorn are the worst. If I walk into a room and there's no context clues I have no idea what the smell is because it all smells the same, I just know that it's bad.

Sweets/sugar seems to be the only thing that tastes good and the more bland something is, the less bad it seems to taste for the most part. I try to get as much rice into a bite as possible to cover up the bad taste from the chicken or pork or fish. I drown steak in A1 sauce. Or put enough cayenne pepper on chicken that it numbs my tongue. Making sure I don't breathe in through my nose as food is coming towards my mouth seems to help. *shrug*

Isn't this a sign of stroke or blood clotting?

I had it the first week of August. The bad taste started mid-October.

That really does sound terrible. Is water normal for you?

Michael Hutchence had issues with taste, and he got all agro and into auto erotism asphyxiation - didn't end too well for him. Don't go down that route

I missed that you need to submit to your insurance to get compensated. Why make it so convoluted? Just subsidize the tests like Europe does, and maybe don't throw up so many barriers to entry.
