HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by paranoidfellow: 6:54pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
I don't know when it started but I can say I noticed this afternoon. It's all happened after dressing up and I went ahead to use my roll on and my perfume. On my way out, I noticed I wasn't smelling my element perfume scent. I went back in and I started spraying the perfume all over, this time, I was conscious and I was certain I wasn't smelling anything. I concluded the perfume was expired even though I just bought it. I called my brother and I narrated how a perfume could loose it's smell after getting expired. I sprayed it on his hands and he said he could smell it. It was starting to get scary. I sprayed it directly to my noise this time, no smell no allergic reaction. I started trying to smell everything in the house, pot of stew, meat, fish everything and nothing!! I feel like the only function my nose has is to breathe. I call some people and I was assured it will be temporary. I'm scared, I'm just 26. Have never experienced it before and it's scary. I need advice and the next step to take. I'm thinking of going to the clinic tomorrow and speak with a doctor but before then I want to know what to expect. Physiological I want to be ready too, so If theirs any advantage of not having a sense of smell too, please tell me. |

TheRealProphet:That's the exact advice I got from a naughty friend, but I'm telling u, I m 100% sure I won't smell a thing, although for my health sake I'm doing... But I've tried similar options |

RealLordZeus:Is this real |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by RealLordZeus(m): 7:23pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
GODSENT253:Bro the thing don tire, it made me realise the emptiness in foods. Imagine not knowing whether a food taste sweet or not, just that bland taste. When black capped pepsi taste like water, that's when I started getting sacred. Well as a first aid, I've gotten malaria drug from a local store which we run for 3 days and practicing isolation to the best I can, if after the 3 days which is tomorrow, it still persists, I will then choose whether to call ncdc or go for genuine agbo |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by Nobody: 7:26pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
RealLordZeus:you better go mark register for ncdc. yoruba ppl and agbo na 5&6. |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by GODSENT253(m): 7:48pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
RealLordZeus:good. Try and get a test bro |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by paranoidfellow: 7:50pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
RealLordZeus: I don't feel sick. Tracing myself back, have had catarrh for the past 3 days now. No coughing(sneezing) , no sore throat but I have a blocked nose and I had to use inhaler to make myself better. I don't know if it's related but to be real, I'm grateful I still have my taste. Not having a sense of smell still seems funny to me. Like everything just became odorless. Don't take heart to what people say and don't fret. |

paranoidfellow:Actually, had measeles about ten days ago, since then I've not been kind of well, so I thought its the measles stuff, but shit is turning something else. Of course I'm not the panick type, and that prophet guy, I choose to ignore due to his last sentence |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by missjekyll: 8:19pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
There is a 100 percent chance you have covid. Stay in your house. Call NCDC. Your brother should self isolate as well. |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by paranoidfellow: 8:51pm On Aug 16, 2020 |
missjekyll: Their's 100% chance you're wrong. But thanks for your input. I'm at home and I'm self isolating. |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by missjekyll: 10:29am On Aug 17, 2020 |
paranoidfellow: Only one way to find out. Call NCDC and get tested |
Re: HELP!! I Can't Smell Anything by goalgetter01: 11:09pm On Aug 17, 2020 |
paranoidfellow:this same thing happened to me 2 months ago, what happened in my own case was that I took some malaria drugs and I couldn't smell anything the following day. Immediately I went to complain to the doctor that sold the drug to me, he now asked me to put rub in hot boil water and use duvet to cover myself, he did this for like 5 days before my smelling sense returns back. it will go on its own as far you were not born like that. Don't worry bro |
