Everytime I sneeze I can smell flowers. It’s not a horrible smell, it’s sweet. I notice it more and more. Is that normal? Wtf 🤣

No 🤣 but in all seriousness could be sign of diabetes.

Do You vape?

I smoke shoot me but tried vaping and I just couldnt do it, I hated it. Everytime I coughed or sneezed It was a really strong taste and smell of the vape flavour.

If you have become allergic to pollen then you will be trying to sneeze it out of your nostrils, and why you can smell flowers. There are some lovely scented trees out atm.

No not at all. Never smoked anything.

the pollen theory could be right as I have a lot of flowers in the house at the moment and the kids potted daffodils opened yesterday and they stink!

If I have a prolonged sneezing fit I can often smell mushrooms. Mentioned it to the GP (thinking maybe there could some sort of fungal infection in my sinuses that might be contributing to my repeated bouts of sinusitis) and he literally couldn't have cared less. Totally brushed it off.

Having said that - and I don't want to worry you - a friend of mine did develop a very weird sense of smell and he was diagnosed with a brain tumour.

It’s been happening for long enough that if it was a brain tumour I’d be long gone (I lost my dad to a brain tumour when he was in his 30’s)

but sinusitis it could be too, I am very prone to sinus things. My fear is diabetes… I’ve taken some piriton and still sneezing.
