Bad Taste

[pjenkinson1970 20]

I had my surgery on 8-28 and I am 8 days out. I am feeling great even started walking on my treadmill the last 3 days at a slow pace. But I have one problem I have a taste of blood inmy mouth (it's so gross). I had a sore throat for the first 2 days but I'm sure that's normal. But about day three I started getting the taste of blood mostly in the morning. Did anybody else get this? I hate to bother my dr with a small issue like this.

if i had a taste of blood in my mouth, you can bet i'd bother my doctor with an issue (however small) to just ease my mind if anything. cant comment if its normal or not. i have had 6 surgeries and never had that. id make a simple phone call.

CG is right. We pay our surgeon's big bucks to take care of us. My surgeon even gives an emergency #. It would take 2 sec.for them to tell you if you need to worry. Make the call.

Agreed with the above posters. Isn't your peace of mind worth it?

My mom has had several surgeries and thought I might just be from the breathing tube they put down are throat. I don't actually see blood just the taste but I will def. call dr in the morning. Thanks everybody for your opinions.
