Had Hysterectomy And Bladder Surgery. Getting Metallic Test In Mouth, Sore Stomach. Took Laxatives. Is It Normal?
I had a hysterectomy and bladder surgery a week ago. For the last two days I have had a metallic taste in my mouth it is accompanied with indegestion or sour stomach . I did have to take laxatives for 4 days. However I did not take it today because I thought they may be the cause . The taste makes me very nausea . Is this normal and is there anything I can do to get rid of the taste?

Hello
The symptoms point towards the side effects of the medicines you might have taken or may be still taking after the surgery.
Just wait for the course of medicines to finish .
For sour stomach ,you may take some antacid like pantoprozole 40 mg daily on empty stomach for few days.
Do inform your treating doctor.
Thanks
