Your taste affected now.

I’ve noticed my taste of certain things I used to like now taste bitter of quite different. Anyone else experience the same thing since surgery?

Immediately post surgery I did not like a lot of sweet things. They tasted extra sweet to me. That’s the only taste difference I noticed so far.

Yes, this is quite common, but usually temporary.

^^^ agree with Sunnyway - common but usually temporary

Yep, pretty common. Some even find their sense of smell becomes over sensitive & the smell of certain things turn their stomach too. It’s temporary.

I can't drink water.. I used to drink a lot of Water pre-op.. But after the surgery water tastes quite weird to me. So, I've been using crystal lite, gatorade zero, diet iced tea, etc.

Waiting for the 'temporary' to pass. :)

      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. 😫
