I have been tested for Sjogren’s multiple times but don’t have it. My constant salty taste has developed from what was initially a strong metallic taste. It then went to a bitter taste and now is salty. Not sure how long this will last. My issues have been diagnosed as post covid
syndrome in which I had loss of smell for 6 months (also a phantom smell) and the pervasive metallic, bitter now salty taste. After consultations with ENT, neurologists, rheumatologist, etc. No one knows much about it nor any remedies. My faith relies in others who report improvements years after the occurrence.
