New symptom! bizzare smell and taste developed 2-3 months post covid

Hey SSLariz, I had COVID a 2nd time in October 2023. I completely lost my taste for coffee. I always looked forward to it in the morning. It tasted so bitter to me that I could no longer drink it. My first round of COVID in 2022, I did not have this with either taste or smell.
After a year, my taste for coffee is coming back......not 100% yet.
Definitely COVID can affect your sense of taste and smell. I am praying you get yours back because as I know what you are experiencing is difficult.
Blessings....

I am 4+ years LC. One day about 6 months ago I drank (or tried to) my regular cup of morning coffee and it tasted so bitter, I stopped cold turkey without regrets. I have been a coffee drinker since about the age of 6 when my mom put a dribble of coffee in my mug of milk. Loved the smell. Loved the taste. It's getting better, but I was so disappointed! With multiple other COVID symptoms still plaguing me, it had to take my coffee away? You're right, COVID stinks!

Yes coffee is one of the things that smells most disgusting. but tea is fine so I'm drinking that now, but I do miss coffee.
I did find that if I try really expensive good coffee its not as bad. I think my sense of smell has gotten stronger - but especially for bad smells.
