Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a weird change in my ability to smell and taste. Almost everything tastes and smells like a coffee creamer. It is sweet but no distinctive flavor. There are times that I get a very short window where I might taste something that is highly seasoned. I cannot smell coffee grounds even in the can. It started with a URI in the spring and I thought it would eventually go away but it has not. I have very occasional dizziness as well but it is fleeting. I am 64 years old but very active and have had no major health issues.
