Specializes in Neurology

It's "dysgeusia": Dysgeusia = altered taste. Tongue can sense only 4 things: Sweet, sour, bitter, salty. All other "taste" is actually smell = dysosmia. Need to figure out if your "dysgeusia" is a primary taste disorder or actually your nose. The eyes may not see, the ears may not hear, but the nose knows.
