Hi Dora,

I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on t.v. LOL

but an idea might be that the medication they use to knock you out for the

surgery, it might change your system somewhat.

For example, I've had carpel tunnel surgery on both my wrists' after the first

surgery I was fine, after the second one I found I was allergic to codine, even

tho after the first surgery I was able to take it with no problems.

So maybe between the physical changes that have been made to our bodies, along

with the anastethia (typo) that somehow messes with the bodies " system " .

Hope that made sence! LOL

Re: changine tastes

I DIDN'T BELIEVE MY TASTES WOULD CHANGE... BUT BOY, OH BOY... DO

THEY EVER!!!

i used to love anything sweet... now sweet makes me ill. eggs were

great in the past...now i can't eat them. chicken was my fav

meat... i can't stand it. i loved the smell and taste of garlic...

now i have to leave the room when my family is cooking with it or

eating it. bread makes me sick... but rice cakes are ok. i used to

love american cheese, now i can't stand it. i hate tuna now... and

used to love it.... but interestingly, i had raw oysters at a

restaurant a couple of days ago, and I LOVED THEM... they didn't

make me sick, in fact they made my tummy feel good... i was happy

about the protein i was getting with very few calories.

your tastes definately DO change!!!!!
