I have never been a fan of popcorn. However, I always loved the smell of it. Last evening my step daughter was microwaving a bag and the smell made me seriously nauseous. In addition, this past weekend my husbands family had a reunion. One of his relatives brought some type of smoked meat. I loved smoked anything pre surgery. I had to change tables as the smell was so very overwhelming and was also making me nauseous. I am just at one month post op. Has anyone else had similar changes in smell? I knew tastes could change but I am convinced it has also affected my sense of smell.

I did! I'm in week 5 and things have gotten more back to normal. But my smell senses were so high certain things made me nauseous as well. It does get more normal as you get further down the road.
