I am getting over a severe lung virus, which began in my sinuses last December.

Having progressed through dry naso-pharynx and split tongue, digestive problems, and cough, I am now experiencing a strong taste of SALT in my mouth, even though I have lost my smell and taste over the past two weeks.    This is very distressing - has anyone any ideas please ?

It is not just a slight salty taste, but as if I am battling with the contents of whole bag of salt !
