Sweet Taste: Good day; A sweet taste in your mouth may be a sign of the body's inability to regulate blood sugar or extreme thirst, frequent urination or exhaustion. Contact primary care physcian ASAP.

See Physician: May be nothing. But may also signal onset of a systemic problem. Please see your GP as s starting point for evaluation.
