Thanks folks.
I lost taste just this morning (as if I ever had any). A tangerine I was eating tasted like insecticide. I later realized that tobacco smoke was wafting in. I think this stench had overpowered the tangerine but I didn't recognize it.
I forgot to mention that also in my medicine chest are several gummy products of the recently legalized cannabis. I've not yet incorporated any of them into my current COVID therapy. Each has a somewhat different effect and I don't need any of those effects yet. I think I'm spacing out (fever does this to me)...later folks!
