Well, Celia, you are not alone…I have long haulers as well, with no taste or smell since last December 14th! I can tell you that it is awful! I am seeing an acupuncturist and have had more than a dozen treatments, still no taste/smell. I have an appointment with a new ENT next month and am hoping they will be able to find a reason. I take many supplements, as I also have a low thyroid and take Synthroid and Cytomel to treat it. I was told by my dermatologist, and she also said, “I’m a doctor and I shouldn’t be telling you this”, but smoke a cigarette! Apparently, Nicotine is suppose to help get your taste and smell back. Who knew…! I haven’t done it yet, as I’m an x smoker, but I may try the Nicotine patch, of which I’ve already purchased a box, but am waiting as my neurologist suggested. My patience is running thin as well and at this point, I just might try anything. I wish you a happy holiday and a healthier new year!
