Tastes weird at the back of my throat...

For the past 3-4 days I've had this lingering taste at the back of my mouth not quite reaching my tongue. If I had to describe it the closest I can get to it is like when a filling falls out of your tooth and that weird taste it brings.
It's lingering at the back of my throat whenever I go more than 5 mins without having a drink or eating something, I can't taste it when I'm eating/drinking but it resurfaces not long after.

All my fillings are intact and this is really starting to bother me know.

Has anyone ever experienced anything similar/know what it might be?

Tonsil stones?

Tonsil stone? The sporners can tell you more. They know all about tonsil stones

That was my first symptom of pregnancy. Is that possible?

I'm not in any pain or discomfort.... Is the taste alone associated with tonsil stones?

It started when I was on my period so doubt it's a symptom of pregnancy.

Tonsil stones taste and smell awful, they don't hurt though - have a look at the back of your mouth with a torch and see if you can see any white lumps. You can usually dislodge them with a clean cottonbud.

Tonsil stones can hurt when they’re ready to ‘come out’ or are near the surface

There's no pain, no smell either just this taste almost like an aftertaste when you eat something bitter...

I'm going to have a look but I can't feel anything with my tongue.

Have you eaten pine nuts lately? It's a real thing, trust me!

I had teo tonsil stones gargled salt and went but today I have a strange taste in my mouth too strange

Some medication can leave metallic taste in the mouth, have you started anything new?

Reflux?
