Hi, The last week or so I have developed a metallic salty taste in my mouth. Also, I currently have a mild flare of diverticulitis. Six months ago, I had a cholecystectomy due to gallstones and appendectomy due to appendicitis. Since then, I have a different right upper quadrant pain and intermittent dry heaves as well as greasy/floaty mucousy stools. I take lisinopril and Prevacid. I figured the bowel changes and dry heaves are due to changes after surgery and now my current mild diverticulitis, but what could be causing the metallic salty taste?
