Anyone have luck with essential oils to do smell retraining for delayed #parosmia after COVID, and if so what ones did you use? Thought I was fine after briefly losing it while sick, but the burnt chemical smell is lodged in the back of my nose for the past few days & won't budge.

@jillrhudy I got a weird version of #parosmia after a symptomless #covid that lasted for a month. It was like everything was covered in a perfume. Almost all reported covid related parosmia cases are about really bad smell. Mine was good 🤯. I still got tired of it and felt relief once it went away.

@emily_rj I also replied to someone on Twitter yesterday about this, maybe it was you. My phantosmia went from cigarette smoke to ashtray to coal to dirty cooking: all sort of smokey. When I was having strong and frequent waves/attacks of all-over tingling and weakness very early in LC, it was accompanied by a metallic/smokey taste that felt like it came from my lungs. I've seen others say that their phantosmia was smokey so maybe it isn't (only?) memory-based.
