Loss of Smell

Mellie470
I can only smell one in a while for a very short period.  I can still taste even though it seems to be diminishing.  Is there any help for me?  I am 60 years old and I have been experiencing this proble for almost ten years.  Is there anyone that yo can direct me to for professional help?
