I have lost my smell and most of my taste. Some meals I can taste and some not but what is very irritating is the phantom smells. I find this more when I’m not feeling well but it can come on anytime. Also at times I have trouble with my voice. I’ve gone to a ENT and he went down to my voice box and said everything looks good, even in my nose. So I wonder if all of this is from fibromyalgia.
Oh yes! I forgot the smoke.
Yes my voice becomes hoarse now and then. Not sure why it happens even when I’m not talking as much. My taste is both the same since diagnoses of fibromyalgia: had Covid last year. Could be part of that too. I’ve got ninja smell… that’s what my hubby calls it. I can smell everything- even the icky smells. Hope this helps!
God bless?
I have issues with smell and taste most of the time. My voice is awful it's like I have been smoking heavily, I don't smoke at all. It's hard to hold a conversation without feeling exhausted.
Could be a fibro side issue, sounds neurological. I have had the voice issue the more wore out I am the worse. Phantom smells can sometimes point to pre-seizure auras even if you are never actually aware of having a seizure. Again, neurological stuff can happen with fibromyalgia just as it can with M.S., etc...
Try a Tums after you eat. It may be acid reflux messing with your voice..
