Migraines post COVID and other lingering symptoms?

I’m a migraine sufferer but luckily only get them a couple of times a year (and they knock me out for a few days)

Since having Covid about 3/4 weeks ago (positive test mid November) I’ve been plagued by almost daily headaches and I have had a series of migraines that haven’t been my usual with a clear aura, but cause me terrible nausea and pounding pain. I know they are migraines rather than say, a tension headache.

I totally lost my sense of taste and smell for a week or so whilst in the throes of the virus but I would say things are still a bit hit and miss - I think I’m back to normal I find some things are a bit muted or I enjoy the first few bites and then it’s a bit bland. Is anyone else up and down with the taste/smell?

And at what point do you class things as new symptoms?? Presumably not within a few weeks of being positive?
