Please talk with your surgeon or primary care physician. This is not a normal side effect of gastric sleeve. Please ensure you are taking your post surgical vitamins including zinc as deficiency can lead to loss of taste/smell. If you are not taking vitamins discuss the appropriate dose regimen with your surgeon’s office.
