What Causes Metallic Taste In Mouth After Taking Herniated Disc Shots On Neck?
I had injections done on monday for my herniated disc in my neck. All day today I have had a metallic tingling taste on my tongue and my heart rate is 109. Bp is good but I feel a little dizzy and that is my resting heart rate. Could I be having some sort of allergic reaction to the injections?

Hello,
The metallic taste in the mouth may be a side effect of the drugs you are using. The elevated heart rate shows that you are having pain. I don't think this is related to an allergic reaction and you can be sure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
