Michel, thats all great news! 

My pops and most people have that same taste bud side effect. One day its fine and the next day its off the charts with flavor, be careful eating anything spicy as it can really set off the HOT taste buds sometimes. 

3.7 is incredible man. 

rest up and fish man! 

thanks for the update and keep fighting
