Thanks for your response - everything I taste (and I do mean EVEEYTHING) tastes different. It's hard to describe other than how I did in OP. SO I might have another couple of months to get through...... ok.

Takes quite a while to recover from a general anaesthetic. The important thing is you're here to tell the tale and hopefully things will normalise soon.
