Tastes like tin
I just got over a bit or a stomache bug about a week back, and since then everything I eat tastes like tin or copper.
Why is that. Its really starting to annoy me.
Appart from that I feel perfectly healthy and the bug is a thing of the past (i think). I didnt take any medication for it other than Valoid because i felt a bit vomity.
Any suggestions?

Fred, it might be that you have gum disease or some reflux. If it doesn’t clear up within the next couple of days the best would be to see your doctor. In the meantime you can try a good mouth wash and something like Mucaine® or Gaviscon®. Good luck.
