What Could Cause Loss Of Taste From Taste Bud & Blood From Nose?

I have rapidly been losing my sense of taste. I can only taste salty, sweet and spicy. Mostly everything else either tastes metallic or like nothing at all. I have been congested, wake up with dried blood in my right nostril. I use a netipot. It helped at first and no so much now. I ve stopped using Qnasl (which I used for about a year). Is this normal
