Hi Kiki, I got it last year after “covid”. Every couple of months for a couple of weeks at a time. I always had the essential oils ready for the smell training and that would relieve it for a few minutes at a time…..it was exhausting. The smells were cigarette smoke, burning rotting flesh and some other disgusting smells. Someone suggested using nicotine patches…..it worked! And I’ve never had it back since! It’s been about 8 months now.
Check Dr Ardis out, he’s a big advocate of nicotine…..apparently it can reverse all kinds of issues. It’s nothing to do with cigarettes….nicotine is natural and actually found in nightshade vegetables. I use Tolevita anti-smoke patches 21mg and cut them into quarters, so I only have 5.25mg per day. This is the brand Dr Ardis recommends and you can get them on Amazon.
