We social distance, usually wear masks in public, and stay up to date on our vaccinations. But all it took was one lady with a mean cough on a two hour flight a week ago to ruin that…or so we think.

The timing really sucks. I had plans for my weekend.

    Exactly the same here. I tried to train my smell with essential oils like lavender, lemongrass, orange, etc. It took sooo long for me to smell anything at all. I am still just at around 70% of my ability to smell before covid, and it’s been over a year now :/

      Yeah I’m not 100% and it was unsettling how down I was getting about it. My boss still can’t taste red meat 2 years later…I need to taste tomatoes again, they are my favorite. I hope your smell continues to return and you are fully recovered!
