lyalochik 3 Posted September 3, 2020 Hi guys, so I’m 2 weeks post op and yesterday mid day all of a sudden I couldn’t taste or smell anything, I already had covid test before surgery and was negative, and I’ve been home pretty much ever since, I’m hoping I didn’t get covid from the hospital somehow 🤔, anyone else have any similar problems? Going to go get tested again just in case. Wish me luck! 2 GreenTealael and STLoser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassafras1 63 Posted September 4, 2020 That doesn't sound surgery related. Loss of taste and small is a big sign of COVID. You should definitely get tested and isolate from other people.

GreenTealael 25,437 Posted September 4, 2020 This isn't something you normally hear about pertaining to WLS. Usually it is altered or heightened sense of taste and smell. 1 catwoman7 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarotcardreader 196 Posted September 6, 2020 If not covid could be from the tube going in your mouth n down the throat. It can knock things. I had a blood clump in one nostril when i awoke from the surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STLoser 1,099 Posted September 6, 2020 It sounds like Covid to me, so I'm glad to hear you're getting tested, and I hope it isn't!Sent from my moto g(6) using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
