I've been tasting something sweet.

I'm not sure what its from. Sometimes it taste like blood. After I brush my teeth, It just comes back after a few minutes. I have GERD, and a number of medical problems.

Pituitary tumor, although it is tiny.
Aortic Stenosis
Asthma
Depression
Under active Thyroid
and a few more things.

I'm on medicine for all of them. Except the tumor, obviously.

I am a hypochondriac, and I do worry about everything lol

What could this be? I just had blood tests a few months ago, and It said I do not have diabetes.

Any answer would help. I am going to the DR Monday, but its driving me nuts!

Ok, I just got back from my Dr.'s appointment and he said it was probably my post nasal drip, or my gerd. Although I did ask if it could be from  my pituitary tumor and he said, it can be, but its unlikely.

About 5-6 months ago, I saw an endocrinologist and he said my tumor was not producing anything. Could it be now? Now im nervous that it might be my tumor lol.

Thanks a lot. I will post back my results, I appreciate the feedback. I do not have diabetes, or atleast I dont think so.

Hi
Welcome to the forum!
If you have GERD, there is a possibility that you are tasting blood. Also in there is Vit C and Vit B deficiency, you could be having bleeding from gums. Ask your doctor regarding this. Also since you are on medications for so many things, you would need a combination of acid reducing agents to treat GERD. Please ask your doctor about adjusting your prescription for GERD accordingly. Also if you have diabetes, then this could be causing a fruity breath which you perceive as taste.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
