I have received the Lidocaine Hcl Aerosol spray about 3 times in less than six weeks. I didn't find it effective but it did cause a change in my taste buds and after the 2nd and 3rd treatment I noticed that my taste buds had been changing and the tip of my tongue started feeling numb. It's been about 10 days since the last spray and I still can't taste everything. All I can taste is bitter and spicy stuff before anything else.
I feel like this has affected my job and my overall personal life when I'm cooking, baking and eating. I can't seem to enjoy the things that I used to enjoy because I can't taste them.
Has anyone else had these issues and how long did it take to go back to normal?Read More Read Less
