Strange sweet taste in my mouth.

[arianoamber]

Hi, I am new to the site and thought I should seek some support since nothing is helping. I have been to the ER twice in the last 2 days. My complaints were diarrhea since Thursday, and a strange sweet taste in my mouth. They ran all of the necessary blood tests and said they were normal for things like diabetes, regular CBC, and even if you more tests including a chest x-ray. I was concerned about it being something neurological, but they did the neuro exam and said they were not concerned. I can't get the possibility of it maybe being a brain tumor out of my head. no one can give me answers and they didn't want to do a CAT scan because they didn't think it was necessary and the radiation could be damaging. I'm not sure what else to think. Help?

On and off. That day, I had only had a muffin. It was very strange though. It was sweet when I took a breath in and tasted sweet on and off for the last few days. I have maybe had one meal a day. I have been so nervous, I can barely eat.

I know when your body enters ketosis you can have a sweet taste in your mouth or sometimes metallic taste

Can it be acid reflux since you haven't been eating? It can be sinusitis as well.

My number one question is if you had eaten or drank anything sweet recently, since sometimes the aftertaste can make itself known. Your doctor already ruled out most of the severe causes like diabetes or its ilk, so I'm in agreement it could be ketosis (Not that serious, just if you haven't eaten a lot your body compensates by using fat) or something with the sinuses.
