Hello
I am pregnant with an awful cold which I have had for four weeks!!! I know its harder to shake them off when pregnant but its driving me mad.
My nose is going to fall off at this rate with all the blowing I am doing every minute.
Also since last week I notcied that I can no longer smell except for strong perfume and I cant taste my food. I even had garlic bread yesterday and nothing - tasted no flavour. On Friday we had an Indian and I could not taste the flavours but I knew it was hot as I could feek the spices working on my tongue. Anyone else experience this?
How long was it before your taste and smell returned?
The other week I thought I had sinitus as I had a pain below my eyes and lots of brown gunky stuff came out of my nose (sorry its disgusting!)It only lasted a few days then stopped, I have no pain now and just a very blocked and runny nose.
I dont want to go to the gp about a cold - he makes me feel over the top everytime i go and i only went last month.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
