hello, yesterday i started experiencing a strange metallic smell in my nose that will not go away. I feel okay other than being a little congested. i take zyrtec D for allergies. i just got over a bad double ear infection and sinusitis , still have lots of congestion. I finished the ear/sinus antibiotics about 2 weeks ago. since, i have still felt a little congested. totallly unrelated, but i am currently taking nitrofuritoin mono/mac (sp) for a uti . i am worried it might be the smell of blood? tiffany
The strange metallic taste in your mouth could be because of the infection in the ears and sinuses which alters the smell and taste sensation. Besides, you have had various medicines including nitrofurantoin for UTI. All this is causing strange taste in your mouth. You need`NT worry so much as it is only a passing phase and very soon you will be back to your usual self.
