It's all bizarre. And fascinating - if one can 'get out of themselves' and look at it. If I were a medical scientist, I'd want to look at all of the symptoms just posted here. At the progression; at what helps some and not others. Living through this is just not fun. I have to update my post about progression .. forgot some of the "fun" symptoms.

I'm thrilled you got a whiff of food. Food for me was unpleasant for a time - it didn't last long. I'm curious to see what goes next!

Here's to us.

I realize that I never reported back, but my sense of smell returned bit by bit, day by day after a week or so. I am so grateful. I do believe that the essential oil re-training was worthwhile.
