Charm,

Don't give up on something that may not work for you today or yesterday. Retry things every few months. I am almost 2 years post Tx and just about everything tastes the same as it did pre Tx but it's a constant work in progress. I had a BIG improvement in saliva and taste 16 months post Tx.
