Gig 27 Posted October 20, 2012 Anybody else having a terrible taste in the mouth and a fuzzy tongue? I'm not dehydrated, I'm getting in my liquids. It's gross and want it to go away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xavtay2 85 Posted October 20, 2012 I am having the same problem!!! Glad to know I am not the only one... I actually scrape my tongue several times a day because of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bmarion662 76 Posted October 21, 2012 Careful of thrush.. Can happen with the anistesia and antbiotics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiddleman 4,376 Posted October 21, 2012 Yes, I got it too for about 2 weeks after leaving the hospital. I never formally got it checked out, but did a lot of tongue scraping and gargling with mouth wash. Eventually it went away on its own. It was a pretty thick and nasty coating.

kbaith25 38 Posted October 21, 2012 It can also be acid reflux causing it , If you can scrape it off with toothbrush it's Gerd tongue if it stays it is probably thrush Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fiddleman 4,376 Posted October 21, 2012 Acid reflux ' date=' I have that fuzzy white tongue every morning[/quote'] Thanks for the response. It was pretty gross. I had no idea it acid reflux as I thought acid reflux was a burning sensation in the throat after eating something extra spicy or high in fat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soccermomx2 111 Posted October 21, 2012 I was told it is a side effect of ketosis. Mine started at about 2 weeks and even at 3.5 months still have it every morning. When your body is in ketosis you are burning fat so it is gross but a good thing. 1 Fiddleman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soccermomx2 111 Posted October 21, 2012 Yes, that furry tongue is how I know I'm doing things right (also the numbers on the scale ;-}). At first it was definitely something to get used to!! You can search on here for ketosis and should find a lot of info on how it works. Burning fat is always good!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
