Help!!! I Completely Lost My Sense Of Smell And Taste. by vchukwuma20: 5:41pm On May 14, 2015 |
Yes I have completely lost it, I can breathe comfortably from my nostrils(no catargh) and my tongue is not tasting bitter(no malaria). Everything is almost absolutely tasteless and my nose just doesn't perceive anything (no matter how pleasant or unpleasant ). OK I suffered from severe headache, cold, body weakness and fatigue the past few days and by the symptoms I gathered I was suffering from influenza (the flu). I complained to a pharmacist who sold me some very effective meds. Its two days now since I completed the dosage and I can neither taste nor perceive anything. As expected I did some research and it is one of the side effects of the flu, but there was no direct info on how long this would last. I got really nervous when someone claimed to have suffered the side effect for THREE WHOLE YEARS. Please I need to know if anyone has experienced it witnessed such a case. I need your advice please. I can't even imagine being like this for a week, I can't even begin to explain how this feels. |

vchukwuma20: Some people do not even smell from birth. It is known as "Congenital Anosmia". In essence, some do smell while some do not. You need to see 'ENT" doctor. |

I think in some cases, being unable to smell doesn't come as a symptoms of a particular disease.....right from time..my uncle has been suffering from inability to identify odours....even if someone farts beside him...and everyone is covering their nose...he'll not even be moved because he doesn't smell it.. |
