Metallic taste in mouth?!?

I googled it and many factors but I was curious if anyone else as this?  Got a little scared by it, no wonder they always say don't google your symptoms...lol

At the beginning I thought it was because of the Iron but the taste came 6-7 hours after I took so kinda thought it couldn't be.

Thoughts?

It could be ketosis.  I always have metal mouth taste when I am in ketosis.

OK, don't laugh but have no idea what Ketosis is...lol...and I've had it since surgery, didn't have it when I was 4 weeks on OF which by what I read, you should be in Ketosis...lol

Do you take any other medication?  Immovane the sleeping pill gives you metal mouth.

only med I take is since Sept (surgery) and its prevacid, the rest is only the Bariatric Vits

 I always got it when I was pregnant or in ketosis.  

Definately got that when I was pregnant - I remember it well!

 Definitely ketosis. Do a google search on it. It is common among diabetics who are spilling large amounts of sugar into their urine. It is also used at a weightloss method in the Adkins diet plan. It will go away once you start to add some carbs back into your diet. Get some keytone strips from your local pharmacy in the diabetic section. It measures the level of ketosis you are in. It's not a bad thing. The higher the level, means that your body is metabolizing the fat quickly into sugar and expelling it through your urine. The metalic mouth is a side affect and a great sign that you have achieved ketosis. It happens when you consume a large amounts of protein and a very low amount of carbs.

Thanks for explaining this....i appreciate it!
