    Making mine shower.... I smelled a funnel cake from two blocks away.

  • OMG yes I got sleeved on 12/8 and even my home sir fresheners that I have ALWAYS used are too much for me. I wonder if this will go away or get worse?

  • This reminds me of a joke. A blind man walking by a fish market, tipped his hat and said "Good morning ladies".

Yes, this happened to me. I've always been sensitive to smells but for a month after being sleeved it was overwhelmingly strong. I made my husband take the trash out almost every day because I could smell it from across the house.

I'm over a year out and was standing in the dining room at my parent's last night and said, "I smell marshmallows." My mom looked at me in disbelief and said she opened a cabinet in the kitchen to put something away and there is a giant bag of marshmallows in there. LOL! I've still got it. Mom said I'm a "super smeller".

Unfortunately perfumes, body odor and cigarettes makes me physically ill now. Having a keen sense of smell and working with the public is not a good combination.

Omg I was sleeved on 12/8 and started experiencing this same thing and was wondering what was going on! It's so weird! I can smell everything and I keep telling my dog she stinks ???? and she just had a bath!

only certain things. fast food smells, pumping gas, truck exhaust, an old beater with someone smoking in it, very close to hurling. my surgeon said that it is the anesthesia that rewires only some peoples brains. unable to predict this. he also says it may decrease, may go away, or not. this was NOT in the pamphlet!
