Title: A question
Post by: Panda_9 on September 16, 2006, 01:51:46 AM

Sometimes I get a really sweet taste in my mouth (like now), and it makes me want to drink as I dont like the taste in my mouth. Has anyone experienced this? I always forget to mention it to the doctor.

Not saying your diabetic, I'm just saying what happens when my sugar is whacked out.
