Have any of you lost your sense of taste? The water I drink daily does not taste good, the almond yogurt I eat daily is different, and I am struggling to stay on a soft, cold food diet because I can't eat dairy products. My doctor and dentist had not heard of Burning Mouth Syndrome, which occurred 3 times sporadically in the past, and responded well to increased L-Lysine intake. This time is worse and my stomach and esophagus are definitely involved. My throat and esophagus burn this time, and my stomach is in turmoil. When it started, I had terrible headaches in my sinuses, too. The earliest I can see a gastrointestinal specialist is July, so I will be more religious with Pantroprazole use, keep eating mild foods, non-acidic foods (although berries and tomatoes have always been a part of my daily diet), and try to understand how to regulate stressful situations (that really should not be the reason for this - life has been far more stressful in the past). I appreciate all your past posts. My kids want to take me out for a great meal on Mother's Day in a week and I am afraid I won't be able to taste anything.
