This is the middle of week 4 of seven and I lost all sense of taste three weeks ago. Had a PEG placed last week which has helped a great deal. My biggest issue right now is that everything I attempt to drink has an overpowering salty taste. Anyone have this experience and figured out how to get some relief from it?
