Please can anyone who has experienced this tell me when it got better for them.
I tested positive 9 days ago and haven't had any taste or smell and it's giving me really bad anxiety I'm paniking it won't come back and it's awful.

Mine came back often a Fashion after about 3 weeks. It seemed normal (but less strong) for a while and then it went nuts. Phantom smells, nothing tasted right. I’m now 7months in and it’s tarting to improve - phantom smells gone and some things starting to taste as they should. It’s incredibly frustrating.

Mine completely went for almost 2 weeks then came back and now it's like a day off and a day on.
I also can't eat spicy food anymore because it's like my old tastebuds have been replaced with brand new ones that can't take the heat.
