@DanielFooksArt How interesting yes – I thought it was b12 deficiency too and started taking supplements a couple days ago – but the soapy taste started happening after that. Could it possibly be a side-effect? That’d be funny

anyone else have very slight pins and needles feelings in their hands and feet and a periodic soapy taste in their mouth? is this some kind of thing that’s going around? Just checking.
