My saliva is still not 100% but my taste is almost there and since I want taste way more than saliva, I'll be OK if my recovery stops at this point.
The recovery was a long and frustrating time for me and for most. There were many times that I thought my taste was finished improving but it has taken a big turn (in my mind) in the last 2 months so maybe I'm not finished yet. I'll keep you posted.
I also did a post when I was 4 and 5 months post. If you would like to read them, let me know.
Yeah, tuna, mayo on whole wheat not toasted sounds good to me right now.
