Have Metallic Taste In The Mouth For A Long Time?

I need the phone # of the Phoenix Clinic. I was given a referral for Dr. Snider@Mayo Clinic and they do not take Medicare patients. I need a new referral. I have a metallic taste in my mouth and have had it for several years. I may need metals testing.

Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The metallic taste in the mouth can be because of many reasons like any infections in the oral cavity, pus discharge from the gums, secondary to any medicines like metronidazole.
Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while do saline gargling.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
