    This is quite common. There could be loads of different reasons. Go to your GP and get it checked

    thanks for the advice!the taste lasted about 5 days. i went to the pharmacist on day 4 and she told me to cut out dairy , cut bak on protein and eat fresh veg and fruit and drink loads of water and it worked!she reckoned it was a dietary thing.so glad its gone!!

    The only time I got a metalic taste in my mouth was each time I was pregnant. It was so horrible I'll never forget it :eek:

    I don't know if you're male or female that pregnancy could be a reason. ;)

    FFS :rolleyes:

    OP is it an iron-y taste? You could have some bleeding from a gum infection. Go to your dentist if you're concerned.
