Good question. I've been on 6MP for 8 years, and I've experienced some episodes of having a bad taste in my mouth--but I can't always attribute it to 6MP. Flagyl or antibiotics can make anything taste bad for a while. I once had an allergic reaction to a penicillin-related antibiotic; the only symptom was that everything tasted awful and kind of fizzy. Lately I've noticed that I'm hypersensitive to (and nauseated by) anything that seems like too much salt and/or MSG in food. But I have no idea whether that has anything to do with the 6MP. You may also want to see a dentist, since a tooth or gum infection could make your mouth taste bad. It could also be a symptom of something more serious, but you only need to consider those things as a last resort, if the problem continues after you've ruled out everything else. Hope the bad taste goes away! I know how awful you feel while you're experiencing that.
