Hi,
Well have posted before re: my story but now need to see if anyone out there has similar problem. Diagnosed back in July '13 (had Chemo & Radiation Therapy). Completed treatment Dec '13. I also had that shitty bloody metallic taste during the Chemo but thought it had gone by Jan 14. I had Pancreatitis in January also and then finally had Gall Bladder out in April (they are still not sure of cause).
I then started Tamoxifen in July. But have noticed that my taste (and specifically TEETH) are not right. I have a metallic taste everytime I eat or drink and now look for food to get taste (like crisps/chips for salt). Really getting to me as been going on for about 6 months. Called Oncologist and said go off Tamoxifen (1 month) and then see him. Appt. this week but not sure what he will do for me.
Not sure if it is a cause from Chemo or some other medications but I need to sort it out. Have a name I think it is called (Dyguesia). Got this off my Skin Specialist, even though I had mentioned to my GP and Oncologist a few times before they must think it is just in my head. Seriously, it is like putting aluminium foil on your teeth and then try to eat and drink.
Denist said teeth are ok.
Does anyone else have this problem?
(probably from the Chemo) who knows.
