Before Christmas I lost my taste and my smell. Yes, I tested positive for the “Rona”. Oh, lucky me. I ruined Christmas for the whole family. We had to be quarantined until December 26. So, Christmas was different this year. On a normal year we would enjoy going to my sister’s house for Christmas for a few different meals. You know those meals that are your favorite and you only get once or twice a year. And we were going to miss it. We were able to enjoy Christmas Dinner as a family and it was a great Christmas.
I had two symptoms with the “Rona”, I lost my taste and smell, which is terrible by the way. And it just disappeared, puff gone! The joke at our house was if we couldn’t smell the coffee, then we got it. The morning it happened, I got up and walked through the kitchen and thought to myself that my husband didn’t make coffee (and he always makes coffee for me). Then I walked back in the kitchen and there was the coffee to my surprise. I was so sad. Then I couldn’t taste my coffee, okay so I couldn’t taste the creamer, haha. I kept eating and drinking hoping it would return. My second symptom was for one day I felt poorly out of the whole quarantine. I just needed to sit in my chair and do nothing. Other than that I was okay during the days we were in the home.
The hardest part was not being able to go to town and grocery shop. If I just had the flu my husband could have taken care of it. But no, he had to stay home too. Luckily, I have a great sister and friend that did shopping for me. Needless to say I did not spend as much money at the store because I made a list and my sister stuck with it. She even told me she wanted to add more to my cart because it couldn’t be enough. We made through just fine. Our Pastor and church elders would bring some items that my husband needed and had words of encouragement for all of us.
You go and get tested and they don’t give you anything for it but he did say that I could take Vit. D, Vit. C, and Zinc. That might help. So when I got home I started taking those along with an arsenal of oils. I made myself several capsules with OnGuard, Lemon, Frankinsence, Oregano, Tea Tree, Thyme, Melissa, and Copiaba. I used 2 drops of each oil. I took 1 capsule 3-4 a day. I also diffused OnGuard and Breathe, even though I could not smell them. I also made sure my family was taking the extra vitamins too. By the way no one else in our house got the “Rona”.
I was lucky enough to have my smell and taste come back in a week. It came back just as fast as it disappeared. I took a bite of a radish and I could taste it!! I was so excited. I then began to smell everything else I was cooking. This meant I got to taste Christmas dinner! This Christmas we may have not been able to carry on our normal traditions and meals. But we were blessed with so many family and friends that would help and check on us, even if it was from a distance. We got to focus
I hope you and your family are lucky enough not to catch this germ. But if you do remember your oils and your vitamins.
