I have a loss of taste since I have been undergoing treatment for Lyme. Has anyone else had this problem?

Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause this. Treatment may deplete Vitamin B12 more quickly (part of the detox pathway in the liver). Many of us need a supplement or injections.

Best forms are hydroxycobolamin and methylcobolamin.

Don't know whether reduced zinc can cause this too? It's tied to loss of sense of smell.
