It’s difficult to know what actually caused my smell/taste disorder. Post covid syndrome or Vitamin B12 deficiency. I have both. Since my last post of this thread, I got properly treated for B12 deficiency. My recent ENT visit I did substantially better on the smell test. The ENT was shocked. I knew I was tasting better, because food suddenly got so delicious. So, there is hope for recovery. The negative though is that I still have the constant bitter taste, ☹️ Hoping that will fade over time. Oh, the intermittent fabric softener smell dissipated.
Don’t lose hope. Things can get better.
