Hi, TreeLover.

The metallic taste reminds me of hemochromatosis. Have you been tested for high iron levels?

Extreme thirst can be a sign of either diabetes mellitus or diabetes insipidus.

It might be a good idea for you to see an endocrinologist for a general evaluation. Night sweats could be caused by a number of hormonal issues.

Have you had basic testing done, such as thyroid, B12, metabolic panel, CBC, etc.?

You might have more than one thing going on. Some of it sounds like a drug reaction. People with hemochromatosis can have liver issues and not be able to metabolize drugs, making them sicker than other people when they take them.

Please get to your internist to talk to them about that soon!

Annie
