Hi Donna: I read your post a few weeks ago, and didn't have time to respond then. I have intermittent unilateral phantosmia. I too have had many tests and...
You don't mention how severe the "bump" was. It must have been more than just a tap to produce the symptoms you're experiencing. You also don't say how long...

This is my first posting because I just joined this group. About 15 minutes ago, I thought I was the only person on Earth who has this problem. For 10 years...
Hi Mark. Yes, I understand your concern about the cost. Dr. Henkin charges (Fri and Mon) about $2900. They require $1,000 by the day of visit and will take...

Hi Marjorie. I am scheduled for some type of magnetic field treatment at the hospital associated with the clinic. Joan, his assistant, described it briefly....
Marjorie, I ordered the Hydrasense from Canada ($US 10), both medium and strong stream, but it doesn't work for me. The smell is still there. Maybe you can...
