Blech

Okay last week I started getting a strange metallic taste in my mouth and thought maybe it was IN water which I wasn't used to. It's gotten worse this week. Today it's so bad my tongue and throat feel numb. I can't eat anything. It all tastes more or less like cholorseptic. Even my mouth wash didn't get rid of it. In fact when I tried that the bad taste seemed to surge to overwhelm the mouthwash.

I have no clue what this could be. Might go to urgent care tomorrow if it's still there because the numbness and loss of taste are signs of SOMETHING.

that's what I'm thinking. It SEEMS to be coming from a tooth that was recently filled

It might be loose and have been rubbing away at something for the last couple of months. There's a good chance urgent care is just going to say to go see the dentist so it may be worth saving the money, time and frustation in skipping them.

Which is awful, because this sort of thing always seems to happen on a friday night.

Salt water gargle till monday?

there's a thought. I CALLED my dentist today too thinking exactly what you are and of course no one works around here on a friday
