just getting over my cold and I've got this constant dull ache behind my left eye, a weird taste in my mouth and every morning I get sick - dry heaves.

I just wish it would all go away. I feel like I'm 85% better but I just want that other 15%, y'know?

You might want to visit your GP if you've had these symptoms for a while. Sometimes it can be something like thrush -

________________________________________
In adults
Symptoms of oral thrush in an adult may include:

A burning feeling in the mouth and throat (at the start of a thrush infection).
White patches that adhere to the mouth and tongue. The tissue around the patches may be red, raw, and painful. If rubbed (during tooth brushing, for example), the patches and the tissue of the mouth may bleed easily.
A bad taste in the mouth or difficulty tasting foods. Some adults say they feel like they have cotton in their mouth.

What about sinus problems? Does the ache behind your eye get worse when you bend over? :) Could have some mucus trapped in a cavity - could explain the bad taste in your mouth too, I guess.... 8O
I'd go see the doctor if it doesn't go away.
