Oh, and I did make another dr's appointment for Monday the 24th (I had taken the day off for another reason) to again try to find out why I have an altered sense of taste and tender neck lymph nodes. It's not going away. Anything sweet tastes just awful. Even fruit or slightly sweet veggies. This Thursday will be 3 weeks. All other foods taste normal. It's just the sweet things. I suppose it's one way to cure your sweet tooth.
(as a reminder, I had already gone to urgent care on 10/8, they had no idea, and I switched antihistamines to a stronger one to see if it was my allergies - been on the new allergy med since 10/8 and no change - same antihistamine I was on last fall with good results)
