Dry mouth and bitter taste

I too have a horrible taste in my mouth and the burning is not only in my mouth but us now on my lips. I have lost over 25 pounds in one month and none of my doctors can help me. Now I’m at the point where I’m trying to drink plant base drinks but I can barely keep them down and sores are increasing

I totally understand I’m drinking plant based drinks also to try to maintain weight … so sorry. 😢

I was drawn to this thread, as I have had constant bitter taste since last September (2023). Right after it started, I was diagnosed by ENT with Post Covid Syndrome also having smell/taste disorder. After having neurological evaluation, no answers. Returning to ENT (Duke).

What has been your experience? I don’t have burning mouth now, but did have burning throat a couple times months ago. I don’t know what caused it. Suspected silent reflux, but don’t know for sure. I have also had burning elsewhere on my body. That has mainly subsided. I discovered there is a syndrome of burning sensations. I don’t know much about it. I’ve focused mainly on my constant bitter taste, but I will say that I’ve noticed a slight improvement over the last couple of days! I am cautiously optimistic.

I hope to see more from those who have the bitter taste. It’s rather rare.
