I lost My Sense Of Smell

Had a respiratory/cold 3 weeks ago. Got over it but my sense of smell hasn't come back. Had anyone had the same problem and did it come back and how long did it last? Can anyone comment on this issue.

Hi

I to have had sinus and ashma for several months. I was placed on antibiotics and predisone. It helps for a couple of weeks and here we go again. I have lost sense of smell and taste for several weeks to up to three months. I wish I could give you a better answer but I have figured usually after antibiotics this happens which is a side effect. Best of luck but with CLL sinus seems to be a culprit.
