Guest guest Posted December 24, 2000 Report Share Posted December 24, 2000 Hi all: I was just wondering if any of you have noticed a body odor? Jodi would kill me if she knew I was asking but tonight she came in and as soon as she came close to me I could smell a strange odor. Even after she washed her hands I could still smell it on them, I have a very sensitive nose. Could this be the toxins coming from her body that are building up? This really is concerning me and she promised she would call her doctor tomorrow, that is if she could reach him. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

I smelled, in some indefinable way, distinctly masculine. I can't pin it down beyond that. No one else noticed a change in my smell, or at least they said they didn't, but to me it was very definite. Again, I don't think this relates to you, but since you asked, I'll start the discussion with my experience. Harper (AIH) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 24, 2000 Report Share Posted December 24, 2000 My concern is that the odor is new, when the disease isn't. It wouldn't hurt to call, leave a message with the doctor's answering service, would it? I'll be thinking of you. Harper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. > Genny/Jodi's Mom Well, I also noticed something. Like Harper, I seemed to be the only one who noticed. I would describe it more of a sweetish/sour smell. The worst it seemed to be was when I was in the hospital the first time I had an acute attack. Since then, I have noticed it now and then, but very faint. And for the first time in my life, I have had (ick) foot odor. That is not faint..<yuk!> but at least is not all the time. nne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2000 Report Share Posted December 25, 2000 Vinegar is how I would describe my odor. Seems to come just from around my neck. When I've asked my docs, they just smile. Since the liver is the big chemistry set for the body, when it isn't working well, it stands to reason that the chemical balance of a lot of things will be thrown off, including perspiration.

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2000 Report Share Posted December 25, 2000 Don: Same here smells like vinegar. I also get the same grin when I mention it to my doc, then like always he says it's normal. -Clyde -- Help save a life, become an organ and tissue donor today.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 S... Don't know about anyne else, but our son (, 16,AS) also has an uncanny sense of smell.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Yes I think it is!!! My son who is 12 can sometimes smell things I don't smell and then he gets sick to his stomach... before I knew he had Asperger's I always thought it was his seizures!! So I think they do and also they hear music and voices different than we do!! I hope this helps..... Jo Sue ssamuelhart <ssamuelhart@...> wrote: Hi everyone, I tutor a boy with Aspergers.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 I know my oldest always smells dinner. Normally he guesses the menu in one try. Several autistic children I've known are sniffers. So I think there is probanly a correlation. a > Hi everyone, > > I tutor a boy with Aspergers.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 It's pretty funny (and embarrassing) sometimes. I tutor him in the late afternoon, often in a library, and, even though I sometimes brush my teeth after lunch and use breath mints, he'll correctly (and loudly) guess what I ate from how my breath smells. Then he'll want to know where I had lunch, the location of the restaurant, etc. Yikes! S. Hart Hi everyone, I tutor a boy with Aspergers. He has an uncanny, ultra-acute sense of smell.
