so interestingly i thought i would ask GPT4 bout the Dysgeusia (bad taste) I have with relation to the drugs I have been prescribed and for both drugs it found evidence that Dysgeusia is a side effect of both drugs (The drugs I am taking are valproic acid and clobazam). there is almost no information out there using 'regular search tools like google but there is definitely a link to Dysgeusia and these drugs. I hope it helps someone else. out there

i lost my taste for a couple of months after my brain surgery and then it came back for a couple of months and now, without any clear reason as to why, my taste has gone again and I can almost not stand the sight of any food. it makes m nauseous. the strange part is that it's not a 'loss' o taste but the taste of food changes as soon as I put it in my mouth. my sense of smell does not seem to be affected

For me my sense of smell loss happened all of a sudden after a certain seizure then it gets worst after every seizure. Just like my memory loss. My memory was okay when i was first diagnose with epilepsy, then all of a sudden one day after a seizure, that seizure took away my memory.

My wife has lost her sense of smell, she's mentioned it to the doctor but they can't explain why she should be that way. I'm sure it must be something to do with her form of epilepsy she has.

How many of you have this problem? Do you find it only comes on after you've just had a fit? Let me know.

Be safe
