Eh, it's okay, but thank you. :) If you have to lose a sense smell is the one. It's a genetic abnormality that you'll find in some Appalachian families so I'm not even particularly unusual among my kin.
> I have an issue where I have these crazy, unusual "allergic" reactions (doctors I've gone to actually say it's "hypersensitivity" rather than a normal "allergy"), and one of the weird "symptoms" is that if I'm out and about while reacting to something I ate, my sense of smell gets severely heightened. I'll smell food cooking at restaurants and feel more disgusted than not, even for stuff I'd generally enjoy all the time.
> Pretty crazy how human biology works.
Wow, now that's wild and I'm sorry to hear it. I'd say being disgusted by stuff you normally enjoy is a rougher burden than just being short a sense!
