I have had a diminishing sense of smell for some years.
Some times I smell things and still smell the same thing days later

Hi Richard,

I can't smell much of anything - for example, my grandson is 5 yrs. old and I have never smelled his breath. I can smell his sweat after he plays hard, but [a little gross as it may sound] I don't know his "smell".

One thing that sticks with me, is a certain metallic smell when I was first diagnosed...it was weird, not sure where it originated but it stuck with me awhile.

Welcome to the forum....tho sorry you have to be here.....we still welcome folks to join us.
