Hi. .. Anyone out there who's lost their sense of taste or smell recently, could you tell me how long it was until you got it back? I lost mine around the 20th March, right at the start of lock down and before this was a recognised symptom. Got up, was cleaning, put oil diffuser on and... nothing! The rest of the family had to assure me it was working and it was me that was broken . Since then ive had the odd wiff of something which lasts a few seconds every 5-6 days and i can taste basic senses ie.. salty sweet sour.. but cant actually taste any flavours. DH came in this morning asking what burning smell was..only to realise i had left straightners on . Anyhow, enough of my ramblings! If anyone else out there lost it & got it back ... whats the average time scale please? Thanks
