I went to the doctor last friday with a really bad cough that I've had for over a week. It appeared I've got bronchitis and got prescribed antibiotics and an inhaler. What really worries me that since thursday(before taking any medication) i have completely lost sense of smell and taste. Feel absolutely nothing. even strong perfumes or strong flavours like cofee, garlic etc. My nose is not even congested and i havent got problems breathing through the nose. Scared it might be permanent. What shall i do? Has anyone had similar experience?
 
I've had this happen with different types of antibiotics and it will come back once you finish the drug. If it doesn't come back after a week or 2, check with your doctor.

A lot of time with bronchitis, you get a sinus infection along with it. I know for me, the primary symptom I get with a sinus infection is no taste and no smell. It's the only way I know I really have one. Possible?
