I Had A Sensitivity To The Touch Of Metal Prior

I had a sensitivity to the touch of metal prior to my surgery in which they removed C-5 and C-6 and replaced them. touch of my skin on stainless steel and to a lesser degree other metals, hurt my skin - almost like a razor cut feeling. Now, several months after the surgery which was May 7, I am having the symptoms again. the stenosis has also affected my sense of taste. I can no longer eat the hot foods I loved. Will this eventually go away or is this my future?

Thanks, Carolyn OKC, OK
