Gross coffee aftertaste like smell in sinus and all food tastes gross!

Hi I have had the same problem for 6 months and it came on suddenly while drinking White Claw rasberry., I fell the night before but no bad taste. I have been to dentist and ENT doctors as well Neurologist and no one knows or wants to believe. It ruins my day the taste and smell. I can't eat or drink it burns my mouth and I have tried every prescription from antibotics and neurological meds. I have a had 3 teeth on right side pulled all upper and 2 on bottom left and no one knows what caused it. I told them I drained my sinus with hydrogen peroxide and they told me that would do no harm. I don't know what to do. I cry all the time in pain and the bad taste. Someone recommended zinc or burming mouth syndrome but that happens in pre-medapause which i don't have. This destroying my life and I am so weak. I know how you feel. I hope you get better and find a resource that helps. Best of luck

I have had this for six/seven years. It's driving me nuts. I avoid people because i'm paranoid the strange smell is on my breath. It certainly isn't good for my marriage. I have also made a link to coffee that is how I came across this site. For me sometimes it's a taste other times a smell and I no longer enjoy food. It all tastes meh. In fact I don't crave food and I have found i'm eating a poor diet. Can't remember the last time i said mmm that was delicious. I'm sure coffee is a trigger. I'm a scientist and my job is testing hypotheses.

I wish there was a way we could get in contact with each other. I'm nervous about posting my email.

I had this 8 yrs ago for months I used NeilMed 4-5 times and it was gone. I got it again now, that burnt coffee stench, very strong and very irritating. I bought some more NeilMed I flushed twice it was gone for few days, now its back. I believe I will have to do it several times a day for week or better to get it cleaned up
