It's been 10 days since surgery and the past several days I feel like I have bad breath. Has anybody else had this and if so WHAT do you do???

Yes! I’m very familiar with this and it’s awful! It also made everything taste bad, even Water. It will go away though just give it time

It's gross. I use sugar free breath mints and brush my teeth twice a day, as well as use a really good mouthwash. It does die down a bit after a while, but as long as you maintain ketosis, it will be that way, unfortunately.

The taste is AWFUL! Hopefully this will not last long. I'm SO paranoid about having BAD BREATH!

Hey, it may be a pain to live with, but it is a GOOD thing--it shows that you are metabolizing your fat stores!

Brush your tongue when you brush your teeth. Biotene helps if you have dry mouth.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
