First of all, let me tell that you need to be strong and brave for your mother. I know how you feel in this situation because I have gone through similar situation with my mom ,who is a breast cancer survivor.Feeling anxious is common in times like these. That weird metal taste on your tongue may be due to nutritional deficiencies or antibiotic usage.
