Hey, i have the exact same problem. I have had it on and off for bout 8 years now. I have found that the only way to get rid of it is to kind of pressurize your nose. Hold your nose and breathe in hard, so you can feel pressure in your nasal passages, do this a few times and it goes. If anyone has found out what it is please let me know. ***@****
I read your article online and I get the same bad taste and smell. All your symptoms are identical to mine. I get the bad taste and smell sometimes when I sneeze, laugh too hard, blow my nose and sometimes it just happens. It ruins the whole day, I know. I will go to sleep and the next day it is gone until it happens again. My ENT doctor thought it may be acid reflux but I take medicine for that and it don't come from that. It happens when the above things occur. I am so upset because I cannot have this diagnosed so I can treat it. I swear it is my sinuses but my ENT doesn't think it is. If you have found out what it is please let me know. Thank you and good luck.
Hi. I believe I have the same problem as you. I randomly get this horrible smell and taste. It seems to manifest when I sniff or breath in deeply through my nose. I have had the problem for a couple years but only over the past week I have been getting it almost every day. It really ruins food and makes everything I eat, drink, taste like this aweful taste. Please let me know if you find a cure to this problem and I will do the same for you. My e-mail address is ***@****
