Metallic blood taste in the back of my throat when I swallow?!
Question: What could be the cause of this?
Please be mature in your answer.
I haven't done anything oral for all you perverts who immediately jump to that conclusion.

It is winter and the air is SUPER dry... Your nose could be dry to the point of having micro-cuts that drip down the back of your throat with normal fluids as it tries to lubricate your airway...
I had this happen when I first moved back to Chicago and suffered through my first uber-cold and dry winter.
Go to walgreens and get a $2.00 bottle of Saline Nasal Spray and use it every hour or so.
The stuff lubes your nasal passages AND has the added benifit of washing away germs and virus's before they can penitrate the micro cuts and infect you.
"They" say that using a saline nasal spray can cut your risk of a winter cold by half... so no matter what is causing the taste, you win in many ways if you use the spray.
I hope that this helps!
Good luck.
The first thing it could be, is dehydration. But if you drink plenty of water, its not that.
I used to get that taste, too and I believe it was because my tonsils are too big and causing me problems, so Im having them taken out soon.
It could even be coming from your gums or your nasal passage.
Have you had anything to eat that contains zinc lately?
