Brief Answer:
vitamin deficiency status.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for your query. In my opinion, you might be having vitamin deficiency status. Metallic taste can be because of that. This can be treated with multivitamin supplement containing zinc. Foul smell and stomach bloating is because of gastric reflux. This can be treated with proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole 40 mg with prokinetcs drug like domperidone 10 mg one tablet on empty stomach for 2 to 6 weeks. Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
