Positive post, I had a sinus infection back in December 2020 from that I believe I had Awful parosmia. It’s been horrible and I had resigned to the fact that this is the way it will always be, but just like that last week I have been able to smell - shower gel, shampoo and it smells lovely not horrible smell my washing smells clean,I can smell real smoke, toothpaste is still a little off and so is meat but fish is back on the menu. I’m praying that this lasts I’ve persevered by smelling everything even when it smelt so so rotten and disgusting. I found that things tasted better then they smelt, so waiting for meals to cool down and didn’t take time to smell it. It’s not perfect but i feel like there is now hope I will completely recover from this. Found great support from abscent which was sign posted from my doctor. Basically smell everything even when it’s bad I think this is what has helped me.
