    If anyone needs some hope I just want to let you know I loss my sense of smell and taste from Covid.....but after 2-3 days, I slowly got my taste back then eventually some of my sense of smell followed. Today is day 6 & I can fully smell again. Your senses WILL come back, I PROMISE! I was scared at first reading some of the comments, but stayed positive and continued to smell random things daily. Any whiffs of scent is a good sign it’s coming back. I hope everyone gets well soon 💕

      Let’s be positive! Trust me crying won’t help! I let it out but I started reading more on how to get it back. Gotta of course take the vitamin C‘s vitamin D, zinc lots of water teas your soups. Smell things that you are familiar with and practice that. If you cant handle spicy they say spicy is good to, those cough halls. Whatever you’re familiar with get back to smelling and tasting it again. The more we stay positive the more it comes back mine is slowly coming back I’m starting to smell certain things again and taste again. The vapor steam really helps as well

    Edit: It's coming back!! I was eating dinner and started to taste the burnt part of my beef. I blew my nose and got a wiff of something. I got my oils and smelled everything. It's not back at 100%, i have to put them real close, but i can smell again. i also am tasting my orange juice now. omg so happy.

    Just to spread some positivity, I lost my taste and smell from Covid and I would have literal anxiety attacks because I was reading so much negative commentary about people not getting theirs back. Mine came back faintly after 10 days...and each day it got better. It’s been a month and I can say I’m back at about 80%. BE PATIENT. I promise you’ll be okay.
    Also, if you have prolonged loss of smell, visit an ENT doctor. Covid gave me a sinus infection and I had no idea. And it was blocking all my senses. Once I got the right medication, it all came back very quickly.
    Drink water, take zinc and vitamin D. And again, patience is key! ☺️

    I was not able to smell or taste anything for 2 weeks after I was tested positive for covid. During those two weeks, I did steam inhalation daily and also took Vitamin C and Zinc tablets which were really effective. During the third week, I was able to smell strong smelling substances like deo, nail polish, camphor, etc and I got my smell and taste back gradually. It's been a month now and both my senses have been restored back to normal. I can smell and taste 100% now 😊 . Wishing everybody a speedy recovery 😁

    I am a "long hauler". I tested positive back in March. I didn't track my symptoms day by day, but it was getting worse everyday. I had almost every symptom. I ended up going to the ER, intubated for 3 weeks, and staying in the hospital for 5 weeks(3 of the 5 in ICU COVID unit) I had ARDS and bilateral pneumonia. I didn't think I was going to get a severe case.. my other coworkers had milder cases.. but 1 passed away from COVID.

      Maybe everyone who’s deeply concerned that they may catch a severe reaction should quarantine indefinitely or until vaccines reaches them. Others should go on with life at their own risk as it always has been with any other contagious diseases that’s been around. I don’t feel it’s fair to stall someone’s freedom and liberties or burden them with someone else’s health or a chance that someone may get sick! It’s unfair!
      I work third shift but I don’t expect my neighbors to tiptoe around their apartment just so I could sleep 8 to late afternoon just so I can get proper rest! Many Americans work 3rd shift so imagine we make everyone start tiptoeing in the afternoon!? It’s not fair. I take issue to people telling strangers to think of others by pretending to be sick!🤨

    Just wanted to give some of the long-haulers hope. Got covid, lost completely for 3 weeks. Then, my smell recovered a little bit to about 15% of normal with some “parasomia” (coffee smelled like burnt toast it’s true!). It stayed about the same level (very faint) until day 50-55 then finally I had a breakthrough and it jumped to about 60-70% of what it was and coffee finally smells like coffee again. Its still not 100% recovered but at least I know my smell system is healing slowly and yours will too. I did not try any smell training although it probably would have helped, I just wanted to share my story and give others who are also long-haulers some hope

      @@adityabora5000 it’s been almost exactly 4 months and it has been a slow recovery with improvements coming in small increments. The weird thing is my smell sensitivity varies throughout the day. Sometimes it seems as low as 50% of normal and then all the way up to 95% just depending on the time of the day. But overall my smell has recovered, just not 100% yet

    To anyone struggling with sense of taste and smell, eating a lot of spicy food helped me a lot. I put so much Frank's hot sauce on everything and it felt like it really helped since I was able to sense the heat.
    I also took zicam zinc rapid melts, coq10, omega 3, and a multivitamin. A combination of eating a healthy diet and smell training different household items made a huge difference.
    I have regained some of my taste and smell, and every single day it's getting better little by little. So please do not get discouraged. I had so many meltdowns thinking I will never be normal again, but thank goodness everything is gradually returning to normal.

    I'm on day 5 with Covid and lost my smell and taste on the 3rd day. On the 2nd day, it was slowly diminishing. I'm also 13 weeks pregnant and unvaccinated. I've had a fever, chills, and body ache the 1st day. On the 2nd day, I still had the same symptoms, then started to get nasal congestion and chest pain that lasted for a few minutes and never returned. On day 3, I began to lose my smell and taste. Then on day 4, I lost it completely. Now, on day 5, I still don't have my smell or taste; I have had shortness of breath that lasted for a few hours, then it stopped. It sucks not being able to smell or taste while pregnant. The smell isn't my biggest concern because it would trigger my morning sickness. It's the taste I miss the most. So far, the only thing I crave is spicy soup because I can feel the spice.

      I have finished 1 week since I lost taste and smell, it seems the smell is coming back faster than taste, slowly it's coming back, but you have to train your senses all day if you want it back fast, start smelling strong odurs, concentrate and imagine how the smell in your mind while smelling, do that all day, different things like, orange peels, ginger, garlic, your senses will come back faster, even apply this while tasting, chwlew very slowly and try to imagine it's taste in mind and try hard to taste it through your buds, do this everyday you will get taste also back pretty fast, for tasting I used chocolate and lemons. Use the power of mind and concentration, it will regenerate the damaged cells.👍 Hope you get well soon bye

    I don’t ever rarely comment but i got covid on a Monday and after a a few days i lost my taste and smell. 7 days later i got my sense of smell and taste back. YOU WILL BE OKAY! Just be strong, positive, and most importantly patient and your taste and smell will be back! I took theraflu, inhaled vicks in hot water every night, and smelled cologne and other strong scents to gain some smell back. Sending prayers your way and i know you will be okay!

    I lost my taste and smell the first week of July I’m now going towards 7 months and still no recovery. Most frustrating thing is that all these “Einstein” doctors and scientists have made vaccines blah blah but have not came up or even gave a damn about fixing the loss of smell and taste as if it’s no big deal for people to lose 2 senses they’ve had their entire life’s and rely on. 😡

    Hello, I am so glad I found this video about your COVID experience. I came down with a really bad head cold which I was going to dismiss as a summer cold, but I wanted to rule out Covid-19, so I went to the emergency room to get tested, and this was on day 3 when my symptoms were going away. I had no fever and a chest x-ray showed no negative signs but was given a prescription for Benzonatate. The test (nasal swab) came back positive to my surprise. The NP said she did not want to prescribe Paxlovid because of the mild symptoms. So, I am isolating for 5 days or until I'm well. Thank you again for these very good tips.
