What Might Be The Cause For Aggravated Sinuses Frequently Which Results In Vertigo And Gives Metallic Taste To Tongue?

I am experiencing a loss of taste and everything I eat has a metallic after taste. I fly frequently, a year or two ago I had a sinus infection that resulted in a case of vertigo that lasted three months. I also have a history of severe ear aches, when I was young. When I fly, my sinuses seem to get aggravated. Lastly, I have had a sensation of stuff in my throat of recent. Any ideas?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you have a chronic sinusitis causing the disturbance in taste.The other causes may be the diabetic or hypertensive neuritis .
I advise you to consult an E.N.T. surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an M.R.I. for confirmation.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods for quick recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
