Just tested positive for COVID for the second time. I'm fully vaccinated and my sense of smell was gone for about a year and a few months. I basically just got it back to full capacity (it was like 20% what it was the majority of the time), and yesterday it vanished again.
FML now I guess all the cologne samples I bought will have to wait until 2024...
Anyone able to get their sense of smell back quickly after COVID?

Holy shit, this is my worst fear. I got it twice - the 1st one and then Omicron and fortunately I did not lose smell and taste a second time because like you It took me so long to get it. The first thing I did was grill up a steak and some peach cobbler when I got my taste back and I'm not exaggerating when I say losing taste again would probably be the worst thing to happen to me now lol.
I had covid around a year and a half ago - I'm still waiting for my sense of smell to come back to 100% functionality, I'm operating at about 20% too. Is there something you did to get it back?
just waited
sorry kindheartedconsultant, have you tried creating a tree diagram to figure out what went wrong? Please add some structure, and I am sure you'll get ur answer. cheers
Lol
Yeah I did, turns out it was a chinese bat
now you can fart and shit your pants whenever and act like you don't notice anything. afterall, whoever smelt it dealt it
And I can go back to ignoring my son's dirty diaper-"Sorry wife, I didn't smell it, couldn't tell he needed to be changed"
Do you need to lose weight? If you do this might also be another benefit, assuming it affected your sense of taste.
