I'm really struggling with the symptom of a total loss of smell and taste (it's day 4) as I have Covid-19 (my husband had it first and brought it home from work we think - he's a nurse)...it's the 7th day since my symptoms began but this is the one symptom I'm really struggling with which is accompanied by sinus pain and frontal headaches. I'm just so worried in case these senses don't return and nobody can really say if they will (although from what I've heard hopefully they will!). There is simply no enjoyment from anything I eat or drink and I love food and cooking! And not being able to smell a thing is awful too. Is anyone else experiencing this symptom and how are you coping?
