Re: effects of anosmia

The only thing I like about going back onto prednisone is that I get my sense of smell back. Not only that but my sense of taste fully returns as well.

I doubt many 'normal' people would understand just how bland life can be without a SOS plus of course the added danger involved without being able to smell anything that involves toxins and gasses.

I think part of the reason I've put weight on (without the prednisone) is that I eat to try and taste food to the point I eat more without actually fully tasting and appreciating the flavours.

This paper relates the hormone ghrelin and sense of smell.There needs to be more information how our sense of smell impacts our daily lives.

You're posting really strikes home. One time I had a meeting at a large factory and I went to the room where the meeting was scheduled to take place. After sitting there for thirty minutes with no one else showing up I decided to leave. When leaving the factory I walked past the cafeteria and noticed that all of the people that were supposed to be in the meeting were just sitting there. I asked them why they weren't at the conference room and they told me that because of the chemical spill they couldn't go back there and then asked "didn't you smell it?"

There really is an added danger to the lose of smell.
