I am a 57 year old male with no health issues. I do not smoke and drink approx. 1 drink every 2 weeks. I recently had the flu over about a 7 day period. On day 4 I lost my taste. I also can t smell anything. I am without any other symptoms at this time and am feeling back to normal. This same thing happened about 4 years ago and my taste slowly returned after several months . There were certain things that I could not taste over the last couple of years but I could taste approx. 90% of everything else. I have been to a Eye, Ear Nose and Throat specialist, an allergy doctor and have had a CAT Scan of my head all with negative results (the last time this happened). Any suggestions on where to start this time??
