Hey I lost my sense of smell and taste about seven years ago and went to two hospitals taste and smell centers both said I must have had a virus that destroyed the neurons in nose. Tried at the time low dose of steroids but no return for me. Then they said aminophylline. I didn't take it and for seven years wonder what a flower smells like or good food. Chocolate dark I get a bit of satifaction from sucking on and a tiny bit of taste. Any other advise as it's so bad I cry each night at dinner which is a lean cruisine. Can't cook can't taste. And I had such strong smell and taste before. I know I'd be happy again if I could get it back? Phillipa
