And have a metal taste in my mouth?

Covid-19 possible: Your signs and symptoms are suggestive of a viral infection, Covid-19 is quite possible. Please see a local physician for getting tested and practice quarantine measures until diagnosis is further known. Also stay hydrated, rest and take acetaminophen for pain and fever.

Metal taste in mouth: The most common cause of metallic taste that I see is primary Aldosteronism a common cause of high blood pressure. The taste comes from the high Potassium in saliva driven by.the excess aldosterone.
