I'm hoping it's only temporary, but it's not looking real good at the
moment. The specialists keep saying "Oh, it could only be temporary", but
at the end of the day, they can't give me a difinitive answer..
I still *love* the taste, smell, and overall flavour of meat, it just
doesn't sit real well in the gut, and the sick feeling for a couple of
hours afterwards is just not worth the effort. The same goes for chicken,
sausages, mince etc. Fresh fish is OK though.

Seems it's affected my taste buds as well, or interfered somehow with the
sensory messages that come into play when you smell and taste wines. Can't
stand red wine (or for that case, *any* wine) or beer anymore :-(
I'm in the process of cataloging all my wine as I've had an offer from
another red wine connoisseur who has seen my collection, knows I can't
drink it anymore, and wants to buy it.

About the only alcohol I can stomach now is a couple of G&T's.

But, I'm alive and still clear as of the last round of tests.
