Baclofen was calming and also helped with the metal taste plus helps a little with pain. You might try focusing your mind on something else. Put an ice pack on your body anywhere but not upper body. Your thoughts will transfer to the cold on your body. Put a rubber band on your arm and when you taste the metal flip the rubber band to transfer your thought to that pain. You may have other ideas of things you can do to transfer your thoughts to something else in lieu of the metal taste. Have you tried different toothpaste and different mouth washes. Have you tried Tom’s toothpaste and mouthwash. Do you chew sugarless gum yourself of the metal taste. Have you tried Tom’s toothpaste and mouth rinse? Dry mouth is a biggie and drinking more water and using mouth moisturizer spray. One benefit of baclofen is if when you drink water you have repeated urgency to pee, well baclofen calms your bladder so you don’t have to pee so much. I get episodes of thinking I have a UTI and sometimes I do and sometimes I don’t. I use a hormone vaginal cream and use my baclofen to calm my bladder.
