I lost my sense of smell 3 months ago. I have been on nasel drops antibiotics and recently steriods but nothing seems to work. I went to see an ent specialist whotook a look up my nose with camera. (this was very painful!) He said I have a diviated septem and he could operate to straighten it but no guarantees. Dont think I'l bother as could end up worser off!

It's coming up to the 3rd anniversary of my loss of sense of smell, which I leared through this website is called anosmia. I believe this happend to me after contacting the worst head cold when a student of mine sneezed on me. Since then, the cold symptoms were relieved through antibiotics, BUT my sense of smell NEVER returned. I haven't yet met anyone else who suffers from this annoying condition! It has really impaired my overall quality-of-life! HELP!!! (Posted by Michael T, New Haven, CT USA, United States Date : 11/4/2008 ) |

I lost my sense of smell and taste about 4 years ago from using ZiCam cold remedy (spray). For anyone reading this that still has theirs, DON'T USE IT! I'm working on a device to revive smell in some whose olfactory still has basic function. The zinc in ZiCam burns off the receptor cells and you're pretty much done after that. I'm hopeful. I just need funding for research. Anyone have a clue how to get it? (Posted by Larry in Austin, United States Date : 11/2/2008 ) |
