I was about to say no but I just stuck my face into a container of tuna and smelled something. Very Very slightly.

About 12 days from possible onset. No major symptoms bh so hard to measure. I only noticed lack of smell less than a week ago.

Slightly. 12-14 days from the start now. Hoping it'll come back fully.

My husband is slowly getting his back. Around a week after it started (which was also about a week since the start of other symptoms). He still can't taste very subtle flavors but says he can taste more than just "salty" or "sweet" now.

Yes. It's 13 days since I started not feeling well, I'm BH feeling all good. I started getting my senses back at around day 9/10.

Yes, two months later, it's just coming back. At first I could only smell things that were really gross, like when the cat litter needed to be changed.

Then I could smell the neighbor's BBQ, but only the wood part, not the food. Just yesterday I smelled lemon blossoms.

I still put way too much salt in my food, and I don't have much of an appetite. I sit here with low blood sugar, and know that I need to eat something, but I have to figure what I can force myself to have.

I've started to smell some things but not fully yet. I was able to smell the orange hand soap in my girls' bathroom. And the almond floor cleaner DD used on my dining room yesterday. But I can't smell everything yet....I guess it's coming back slowly.
