I've had a "taste" of that, when I had a bad case of sinusitis. I could not taste anything. It was very odd, and although my habit was to eat, and my compulsion was to eat, I didn't want to eat much of anything because I couldn't taste it. Hot soups were soothing to me. Still drank coffee.

So glad you made it through. Imagine if they hadn't caught it that early.
