THANKS DANI ,VERY WELL CONSIDERING,ONLY MINOR SIDE EFFECTS REMAINING-CANNOT OPEN MOUTH AS WIDE,NEED TO DRINK SOMETHING TO HELP DRY FOODS DOWN,RED WINE TASTES LIKE BATTERY ACID AND STILL STRUGGLE WITH ANYTHING SPICY OR STRONG TOMATO BASED.BUT WHEN I READ OTHER PEOPLES POSTS AND STRUGGLES,CONSIDER MYSELF VERY LUCKY.
Well done. Early days. The only way is up now. I was fine with a decent ale by six months. A good red wine took a bit longer

Good evening Wolfie, thanks for this update its always lovely to hear how people are getting on and how well they recovered, most of us go through the stage where some foods taste different even now after 15 years wine still tastes very acidy but i find real ales a lot better than conventional beers. Your taste buds will slowly recover and your taste will get back to some sort of normality, good luck in your continued recovery, take care.
