I don't know if this is stress from work or experiencing weather this cold is the reason but I got Fever, Cough and flu. The medicine brands I am used to are not available on this country. I don't know if this placebo effect or just psychological but I can't eat dishes. I can't eat, meat,fish, and veggies. They all tasted bitter to me. The medicines I am taking might be affecting my taste buds. I can only eat fruits because they remain sweet and palatable to me for some reason.
I can't eat what I want because of my tastebud issue. I will go to the doctor in few hours and I hope that nothing is wrong with me.
At this moment I just eat berries,bananas, Kiwi and cantaloupe.

? It's possible your taste buds were affected . . . maybe your body is not used to these "new" medicines. Hope you feel better!@much2say (53959)

@CaptAlbertWhisker Dang - you lost 30 pounds? That's a lot 
! If all is fine, then I would think you'll get back to your normal weight just by eating your usual foods.

I can now eat food that is not fruits. I am so happy that my tastebuds is back to normal. I lost 30 pounds because of it and I look very anorexic. I am trying to regain the weight.

My doctor just told me what you just said. I am now feeling better and I hope tomorrow I can go back to normal food because I am so sick of fruits.

That sure is flu, you are sick and its flu. You have to take lots of fruits rich in ascorbic acid and vitamin C if you don't want to drink medicine.

My doctor told me its the meds. I was prescribed a different medicine from what I use and I hope this brings back my taste buds to normal.
