Sandy, has your taste changed or evolved over the past year?

@123sandy Hi and I had a Heart transplant, and my initial eating problem was food tasted lousy especially solid meats as you also mentioned. But it did not last a full year. I heard it was the prednisone that causes it are you by chance still on prednisone? I was lucky to be on it only for a couple of months and they were able to reduce it pretty quickly. Now I kind of wish I could be a little less of an appetite as I would like to get back to that weight area (LOL) but i was also very weak and had loss a lot of muscle mass, so all stages I guess have their challenges. So I would say something to your transplant team and maybe help with the loss of taste problem.
