I am clinging to hope, though it’s difficult. My smell/taste disorder thought to be from post covid syndrome, has been with me since Sept 2023 too. I’ve also had other issues. While explaining my symptoms, one of the interns at the neurologist’s office told me that he lost his sense of taste for a year after getting covid, then it returned! That inspired me to have hope. If I could only know it would return in a year, I could tolerate it easier. But, we can’t know for sure. I just keep praying and trying to improve. Best wishes with yours.
