Has anyone had problems drinking water? Everything tastes very bad, espically water.

I am about two months out of the bypass surgery, and I had complications so a second surgery was necessary. This is kind of a two part inquiry. I was doing just fine after the orginal surgery but since the second I have had difficulty keeping anything down, even water. Before the surgeries I drank a great deal of water, on a daily basis, it was always my main drink. Now I can barely tolorate the taste of it. I get most of my liquid from Gatorade. I cannot drink Crystal Lite and any of the 'sugarless' replacement drinks, no matter how much I water them down, they come back up, even smelling them makes me sick. The second part of this is the odors part, has anyone had or noticed a heightened sence of smell? This attributes I am sure to the nausa and the inability to keep food down.
