After a CABGx2, even chocolate cake was aromatic tasting. What cause this after the procedure?
My sister tasted the cake and said it be fine. I couldn't eat it, opt for the extremely bland cardiac diet. yuk! There's nothing better than have ground up paper for a banquet. Heart surgery is a miracle. If the nutritionists could come up with something that "tasted" correct, that would also be a miracle.
Answer:
You body does not know the difference in a CABG and being run over by a train, so some things are bound to be out of kilter. Your mouth/throat/tongue puts up next to a lot of crap for that procedure, next they have given you drugs that mess beside the brain (that's how they work) and it can affect how you process senses. Give it some time till all the stuff is excreted.
