Guest guest Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Could the MS patient also has a zinc deficiency causing taste change?

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 I don't think there have been any med changes recently, but have been considering the zinc deficiency myself....I am thinking of recommending they check her levels. Any protocols for supplementation?

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 I have two MS patients. Female age 46, dx at 15 years of age, takes no Rx meds, never has had a problem with taste changes. Male age 55, onset at 45, wheel chair bound, on MS chemotherapy injections, no changes in taste. Every MS pt has different symptoms and I have found no two that respond the same.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Has anyone considered trying an Oral Zinc Tolerance Test as a indicator for zinc deficiency? I know of a outpatient nutrition clinic here in the Twin Cities that offers it and has very good results. http://www.diabetesexplained.com/zinc-diagnostic-test.html#zinctaste > > > > I have worked with many patients with MS and never heard of taste change. > > > > Mazarin, MS, RD, CNS > > > > From: rd-usa <mailto:rd-usa%40yahoogroups.com> > > [mailto:rd-usa <mailto:rd-usa%40yahoogroups.com>] On > > Behalf Of > > dawnciraulo@... <mailto:dawnciraulo%40yahoo.com> > > Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 4:48 AM > > To: Rd usa; Listserve > > Subject: MS and taste changes > > > > Does anyone have any information regarding multiple sclerosis and taste > > changes/loss of taste? > > Thanks > > Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
