I also get this.Sometimes its so bad i actually start gagging and about throw up.It started about 2 or 3 years ago.
Its hard to describe but when you said exhaust smell that is what it does seem to resemble the most.
I have found that if I cover my nose with something like my shirt is goes away until I uncover my nose and the minute I uncover it is still there until it just finally goes away.
It's been doing this for about 2 days so far will run it's course then go away for awhile and then all the sudden it will be there again.
It is just the most disgusting thing and I would really like to find out what it is.
please help i too suffer from exhaust fume smell all day it's effecting my work,don't enjoy cooking anymore cause the smell seems to get worse when standing at the gas stove,destroy my pallet,eyes feels burning, headaches etc..has anyone find out what the problem is my doc gave me antibiotic i have been taken it for 3days now no change at all.
yea i am also tired of this,,,,,,,,,,i donno wat to do,,,,,,,when i blow my nose then it starts and sometimes it stays for a whole day,,,,,,,I cant taste my food,,,,,,,,it realy sux,,,,,
mm..it doesnt smell like poo.
If the smell resembles Parmesan cheese mixed with dogpoop, then see the post "unable to smell or taste" by cindysue2
Also, I get stomach aches every single day.
I am wondering if that has something to do with it.
I went to the hospital & they said i might have irritable bowel syndrome.
In addition to that, I did not have a cold before getting the smell.
I have had it all my life.
But the past 3 months I have been getting it frequently.
I do not have asthma either.
