I thought taste loss was a covid specific symptom.

I lost taste once many years ago from a bad sinus infection.
Loss of taste and smell is common with cold and flu due to congestion. Losing the sense of smell dulls the sense of taste. That comes back as the sinuses clear up but with coof it was much more of a total loss and longer term.
I just had a fever with no congestion whatsoever and it messed up my taste buds completely. No respiratory ailments no headache just a fever and a terrible sense of taste
I lose it for 20 minutes after brushing my teeth
Drink orange juice right after you brush and see if you can taste that
Exactly!
With the coof, it is complete loss of taste and smell. Colds tend to dull those senses for a few days but the chyna virus completely kills them for weeks. So when you eat all you can detect is texture (by the end of the first week you learn to get creative so that you can kind of "enjoy" eating again)
I lost taste and smell completely for 2 days. The weirdest part of it, I wasn't congested at all. Headache and throwing up for 1 day... then taste and smell went. Thankfully it all came back and I was right as rain on day 4
I didn't have any symptoms except for the complete loss of taste and smell which lasted about three weeks. I had no other symptoms, not even the sniffles. Just woke up one day and poof! Couldn't smell or taste a thing. And I even sniffed at things that normally trigger an asthma attack - nothing! That's what made it really weird. Some of the asthma triggers have returned while others still have no effect and it's been over a year and a half.
And this is for weeks or months after. My wife had this happen after covid, and it was a couple months of her having zero taste at all. we’re both massive covid “deniers” who are well aware of all the covid fakery, but this is, from our experience, very much a reality.
I, too, am a "denier" but whatever this is it is not "normal". I even tried sniffing things that trigger an asthma attack and I got nothing. So it affected more than just smell and taste. When smell and taste finally returned, only a few asthma triggers returned. So now I can sniff certain flowers and I no longer get an asthma attack. Very strange.
YES. I don't gain a lot of traction on this forum since it's very late at night in America when I'm posting here in Japan, but I've known about this for a while now. My wife was hit by a car in 2019 and due to her concussion, she lost her sense of taste and smell greatly. Doing research on this condition, I found plenty of testimonies from people who had lost their senses due to a bad cold. I also had two friends tell me that they lost it due to a bad cold or pneumonia. I'm not sure if "COVID-19" really meets the requirements of Koch's Postulates to be a truly "novel" coronavirus.
My sense of taste got all messed up after some sickness like 25 years ago. I remember not being able to eat ketchup or anything with ketchup for years. It was very annoying.
Taste loss is often a cold symptom, but people I know who think they had Covid early on said that, while with a cold taste returns as the cold dissipates, the taste loss after Covid lasted long after other symptoms were gone, and I'm talking months in some cases.
This was well prior to face masks becoming pandemic.
Occurred over the last 3 months of 2021 (multiple people) when all they knew was that had an illness that functioned oddly. After hearing Covid symptoms in 2020, they concluded that's probably what they had, especially because of the weird loss of taste.
Sorry...I meant the last three months of 2019.
Its been almost a year with no taste or smell for my wife. If anyone knows a remedy for her to get them back please don't hesitate to share it. She is pretty miserable not being ae to taste or smell.
The loss of smell in covid (which is a large part of taste) is more ominous. This may be one way that spike proteins cross the blood-brain barrier, through the olfactory nerve,
I lost both in Jan. and tested Pos. for covid. Still can not taste much.
That could be, but My statement is the same.
Wakie wakie eggs and bakie! 🍳 🥓
Also, I recently started seeing advertisements for Shingles in YouTube. I am over 40, and I’ve never in my life have seen any ads or posters about shingles anyfuckingwhere.
Regards gonna retards I suppose.
My husband and I have covid in late Oct/early Nov of last year. I spent 17 days in covid ICU with pneumonia. He was in 8 days in reg covid care. We are still having issues with smell and taste. We can taste but things just taste different. I crave salt and sour candy. My Dr says that nerves were damaged and it could take like 18 months to regenerate those nerves.
