I was admitted for week bt as soon as i came back home i realised that i am not able to smell anything.. one week after realisation all of sudden i have started having this bad taste and smell. I have had no other symptoms . I can read , talk and listen songs like normal people but the bad smell and taste is affecting me alot. I am not able to eat anything. I am also on medication - Nuhenz and Boneo frac prescribed by doc. Can somebody tell me when this bad taste and smell will stop?
