> as for my anosmia, i have used prednisone and other anti-inflammatory meds. again, my sinus issues are due to nasal polyps and chronic sinusitis. currently i do a daily saline nasal rinse with pulmicort (a steroid). it is keeping the polyps away, but has yet to bring back my sense of smell. some people are having success with this in getting their sense of smell back.
John,
Could the pulmicort, and before that the prednisone, be contributing to your depression?jane
