I had a biopsy done a few weeks ago and ever since I have had a bad taste in my mouth and food just has no real taste to it. Is this permanent or just something that will pass.

    Biopsy
    Donna,

    It will pass. I had the same thing happen with my initial biopsy. My taste was just starting to get a little better, then rads and chemo happened.

    Don't worry. It will get better.

    Not unexpected. I had this, also.
    This too will pass.

    Bad Taste & Smell
    Sometime it is because of the medication you were giving during the procedure, other times the area takes a while to heal. This is just my take as I have had many biopsies and never the same affect
