Default Loss of Taste
Hi:

I had major surgery on Wednesday. Spent 2 days in the hospital and am home. All during the time in the hospital I thought the food was tasteless. Little did I know that it was my own taste buds. Since my surgery I can't taste or smell anything. The only thing I can taste are sweets and they have to be over the top sweet for me to taste them. Has anyone else had this happen?
Also I've noticed that I am shedding hair. My brush was almost full this morning after I brushed my hair. I have had several surgeries and have never had anything like this happen.
