I haven't really been able to smell anything for the last 2 years. I figured it was just years of allergies and sinus infections finally catching up to me. And I know it was sometime in the last 2 years because I really can't tell when Kid #2 needs a change.
"Is his diaper full?"
"I honestly don't know."
I mentioned my smelling problems to my allergist at my last visit. And they sent me to an ENT specialist to get it checked out.
ENT guys gives me mega-horse pill antibiotics and super prednisone.
"Have you lost your sense of taste?"
"I don't think so."
Only I didn't realize how much I actually had.
Five days later... Everything tastes SO GOOD to me right now.
(And... everything smells... kinda awful...)
Long story short, I've probably had a sinus infection for THE LAST TWO YEARS.
I'm tapering off the prednisone. Right now.
And I can actually feel it. I'm tripping balls.
It is... unpleasant.
