are you sure it's your sense of taste and not smell?

Smell seems to be fine, it seems to be just a tongue issue:confused:

strange because I would've thought it would just have been a blocked nose. Have you burnt your tongue on hot food recently?

are you on any medication now? - possible side-effect?
Is your tongue swollen at all?

It's probably worth a trip to the docs just to be on the safe side.

(Henvy) Hmm, thats a thought, but no more than usual I'd have said... do you think it would build up as I do it more?

And any thoughts when I might be able to taste again? I got given a lot of chocolates for my birthday, and so far Ive wasted too many on faulty taste-buds!

And Laura Lou, I've finished the run of pills now, so hopefully all should return to normal!
