Hey All,

I have had a sweet taste in my mouth for a long time now. I don't know if I should be concerned or not. My preliminary googling has told me that this could even be diabetes or just a thush in the throat. Anyone familiar with such things?

Here is a pic:

Should the back be translucent like that?

Go to the doctor. Why are you asking AT? I guarantee people will troll before you even get closer to diagnosing yourself at home. By then, you'll probably have full blown throat AIDS.

I don't see thrush. Dunno about the sweet. Have you been especially thirsty lately?

Been eating a lot of artificial sweetener? I've noticed I get a persistent sweet taste if I drink a lot of diet coke.

No. That's one of the symptoms of diabetes that I don't have thank god. I'll probably still get it checked out soon.

Not that I know of. I don't touch soda and I drink mostly water with some juice on the side.

Unfortunately you seem to have developed a serious sweet tooth. The only cure is pie.
