After having bypass surgery one of the meds prescribed was Amaroderine. It had a serious side effect in that it altered my taste buds. I couldn't eat breads, meat
or veggies. They took me off of the med but unfortunately it has an in the body half-life that can last up to a year. My taste buds are improving gradually and I'm picking out those foods that will give me enough calories etc. to gain my weight back.
