Bad Taste

I had my surgery on 8-28 and I am 8 days out. I am feeling great even started walking on my treadmill the last 3 days at a slow pace. But I have one problem I have a taste of blood inmy mouth (it's so gross). I had a sore throat for the first 2 days but I'm sure that's normal. But about day three I started getting the taste of blood mostly in the morning. Did anybody else get this? I hate to bother my dr with a small issue like this.

My mom has had several surgeries and thought I might just be from the breathing tube they put down are throat. I don't actually see blood just the taste but I will def. call dr in the morning. Thanks everybody for your opinions.
