Olfactory Hallucinations ( phantom smells )

I can't speak to that only my experience. It is 100% possible to be your sinuses which I think would be a simpler fix. Have you ever broke your nose? As I say to save a trip to the Hospital, if I was in Liverpool or local to it I would go to Fazakerley or Derriford but opticians can detect certain issue's such as Cancer, and others unfortunately for me my eyesight is almost perfect and I had to go through a couple of seizures, the first one the Police carried me down 3 flights of stairs in a fugue state and put me in their van cause they couldn't get an ambulance on 29/11/2018 after a bit of luck with me half flooding my flat. I spent a week in hospital after several scans and a couple of tablets a day steroids and anti seizure. Amazingly I had my own room which I recommend. My Procedure was scheduled for 18/1/2019 at Derriford and I got to have my first Christmas with family in 13 years.
I came back to my current home on 10/1/19, Had a second seizure on the 14th rushed to Hospital and had my Surgery done on the 16th by a Genuinely top Bloke called Titus!!! We had a brief chat as he had his hands in my head which was weird I will admit!! My post surgery treatment wasn't fun, 33 consecutive scans and trips over the old bridge in Runcorn to Clatterbridge hospital, then a month of Chemo which nobody has ever enjoyed EVER! I still take 2 tablets a day along with Codeine when necessary but I am pretty much fixed and at 97.5% capability.

To make matters worse I was actually excited that "Life Begins at 40!" and I nearly died 3 months into it!?

Don't automatically think the worst! The human body and brain in particular is the most complex organism in the known universe and can on occasion repair itself and Modern Medicine and the Professionals involved specifically in the NHS are superb. If You want any more information I will try to help! Send me an IM and think positive and also avoid the internet.

All in I have been very lucky but 100% the worst part was when an angry nurse Yanked 35 staples from my skull whilst grinning!?

Cheers mate, I’ve never broken my nose and other the weird smell and occasional weird taste, have no other symptoms at all.

I am not trying to worry you but neither did I. The first time I thought something might wrong be was a month before when I was driving home in the works van and I had a very short blackout. I wasn't drinking at all but getting reacquainted with Mary Jane so wasn't concerned. I had even bookmarked a Google search of "what does it mean to smell burning" but never actually read it?!?

I’ll let you know how I get on, but I suspect it won’t be until Sept until I get to see the GP.

It doesn’t happen every night, just now and again.

I’ve still got ongoing problems with my chest from my first bout of Covid in 2020, so they couldn’t be part of it too.

Get yourself to Specsavers or whoever else might be nearer, Boots have opticians. I wish with all my being I had.

Never suffered from that, but I’ve had nasal breathing problems pretty much my whole life.

Did you pick your nose when you were little - that's what it can do - cause polyps in your nose .....

@COYBL25 I’ve solved your problem …. It’s not burnt toast you’re smelling, it’s burning rubber off @Joey66 cycling past your house at 50mph

One handed with 2 fingers in the air

One hand on his handle bars, a V sign up in the air = yes - if he had fell off - I would have cut his fingers off ..... like the French did to our archers ....

If he’d have fallen off at 50mph his fingers would be the least of his worries

I wish my missus' farts were a hallucination, but they are all too real

Is this a post-Brexit thing?
