On the subject of olfactory and gustatory problems, I will confess that
I have long been bothered by vasomotor rhinitis. This is unrelated to
infection of the nasopharynx or sinuses or to allergy.
Instead, it is of unknown cause, and the clinical symptoms are congestion
and a runny nose very much like one experiences with a common cold.
Though the symptoms can start spontaneously, frequently eating is the
trigger, and this may require blowing the nose during the course of a meal
-
not exactly what one wants.
The problem can very nicely be handled by the use of ipratropium bromide
nasal spray, but this has, for me, the side effect of literally paralyzing
my vocal cords. When I was working, this situation was obviously a
no go. I suppose now in my retirement, keeping my mouth shut wouldn't
be out of the question.
We shall see.
David Strang.
