I do remember that things did not taste right the first 2 weeks after treatment, everything was salty including water. Now some days its normal and some days I can still taste but the taste are weak. I think I was very lucky that way. There were several weeks (probably about 6) I could not swallow anything but water so I can not tell you for sure what my taste buds were like then.
