For 2 and a half months, I could not taste anything. Also, my entire body was numb (I could feel somewhat, but it was like when novacane wears off at the dentist).

A doctor tested me for porphyria, a rare disease. The test was negative.

I just had an MRI, and there were no abnormalities.

Since my symptoms have gone away, the doctor said I should wait to see if they come back.

In the mean time, they said if I read anything that sounds like it is what I have, then I should contact them.

Anyone have any ideas?
