If I've lost my sense of smell....

[crackofdoom]

is it probable that I have Covid?

I've got one of those innumerable lurgies that are going around at the moment. Started off like a cold, now got cough and fever and general crapness. What is concerning me is that now I can't smell anything, not even when I stick my nose into the bag of fresh coffee. My nose is clear and I can breathe through it, so it's not bunged- upness.

Needless to say I have no LFTs in the house.

I knew I had covid when I stuck my nose into a bag of prawn cocktail crisps and it smelled like an empty plastic bag. Hope you feel better soon, OP.

Thanks marghogeth
I'm most upset because I had nice Easter holiday stuff planned with the DC, and instead I've just sat in bed the last couple of days while they've spent too much time on screens ☹️
