    Some medicine or supplement you are taking would be my guess.

    I agree with June.

    Those are scary incidents. I've had them and had to call to be rescued. Be lucky that you have people who understand and are there for you.

    I hope you're feeling better.

    I have never heard of someone's breath smelling like metal. Is it something you are eating?

    Hope you feel better soon. Yes, this disease is awful, hang in there!

    You may want to get your kidneys checked. Are you on any diuretic?

    Maybe it is nothing or maybe it is something important such as a kidney issue as mentioned above.

    Tell your doctor. If you would have any kidney issues, some of the medicines including, but not limited to, antivirals might be dangerous for you.

    Hey, dont panic. As someone who spent about 6 months worried about kidney function ( several elevated creatinine blood results) and who finally saw a nephrologist (24 hour urine test showed normal functioning) it could be many things and extra stress about your health you dont need. Its possible its kidney but also there are numerous other possible reasons.
