YES! This was one of my big symptoms when my adrenals crashed. I also got a

lot of allergies and became allergic to metals as I think there is a

toxicity link but the smell thing still drives me crazy. I can smell molds,

foul odors, bad food, chemicals, toxins in the air, etc. Stuff I never

smelled before and no one else can and they think I am crazy. The mold thing

has made me avoid so many people's homes and businesses. Amazing how many

places are affected.

It is just the foul smells too. Good smells are the same. Interesting

though, before this happened I kind of lost my sense of smell and taste for

awhile then it got hyper sensitive.

increased sense of smell?

me too. people with obnoxious colognes really irritate the hell out of me,

and moldy smells

or wet dishrags, ugh. And apparently what I think stinks varies wildly from

what most people think stinks.

Well, not in my case. I have had systemic Candida since age 10 at least but

this smell issue only started in my mid 30s. Cheri

Re: increased sense of smell?

Whoops sent too soon.

These symptoms can also be a symptom of candida.

All of my senses have sharpened over the past few years - at least to

things that feel unpleasant. I can smell things, unpleasant things,

that I would never have smelled years ago. And I'm not pregnant ;)

Me too! I have changed all the products I use to natural, unscented or

citrus smelling because fake fragrances just drive me crazy now. I can

smell everything. I drive my family crazy too. I felt bad because I

received a Christmas present of soap, lotion and scrub that I probably

won't use because I can't stand the smell. I do remember the pregnancy

smelling thing too but I think this is worse.

I can't stand colognes or perfumes anymore either.

Or the smell of chemical cleaners or fumes.

Thank goodness, that isn't it. I have already dealt with and beat

candida. It was actually one of the only things I did not test

positive for in my allergy tests! A lot has happened in 20 years. When

I had it, it was just like AF, doctors wouldn't even talk to you about

it. Now it is so mainstream that allergists test for it.

So when I walk into a store (like KB Toys- yuck!!) it is the chemicals

in the products that I am smelling? I have to leave some stores

because the smell is so bad to me and other people don't smell it at all.

You mentioned you had candida years ago and beat it. I know mine will improve

if I am ever able to start thyroid, but in the meantime the symptoms are making

the AF much worse. Do you remember specific things that helped?

Thank's,

Pat

Pat,

I'm not , but also had intestinal candida overgrowth badly at one

time. Most important thing you can do is very strict low carb, like

Atkins induction, then stay strict low carb. No fruit, no grains, no

breads, certainly no sugars. What I learned of utmost importance is you

cannot get rid of candida while feeding it.

Second, Caprylic Acid, virgin coconut oil. If that isn't enough a good

antifungal Rx. Then a good probiotic with bifidobacterium species--these

are the natural normal human gut bacteria.
