If so, how did you know you lost your taste? I am currently under the impression that I don’t taste anything anymore, but I’m not sure.
It’s a bit weird to be honest. Like, if I see what I’m eating and I concentrate on how it SHOULD taste, then I can sort of taste it I guess? But if I just eat or drink without thinking about it, I don’t taste anything really.
So, how do you know if you have lost taste lol? And how long did it take for your taste to come back?
I tried asking people around me, but no one actually lost their taste when they had COVID.
If spice doesn’t do anything that’ll confirm it, yeah. Also if it doesn’t make your sinuses run, it means you have a sinus infection of some kind. Again this is pretty normal with me and the flu, that’s when I know I have it for sure actually; try to eat something spicy when my nose feels stuffed and if it doesn’t help, then it’s a virus.
Might also just be the cold because I seem to catch it every year but it would mean I get very bad colds lol
