Funny Scent In Nose

I'm not sure where this belongs, but on occassions, but not often I seem to get this funny scent in my nose. It is not nasty or anything, but I just want to know what might cause it.

I don't think it would be gluten, but am wondering whether it could be from soy, as I am eating a bit more of that in small amounts.

Has anybody got any ideas?

I doubt this will be helpful, but before I found out gluten was my problem, I was having daily migraines and there were a couple of times I had a scent hallucination before a migraine came on. One morning I was CONVINCED there was stewed beef in the kitchen, but no, the only food out was cereal.

There was a thread a couple of weeks ago about 'Olfactory Aura'. I think the smell thing can happen prior to Migraines, Epileptic Seizures it more commonly it can be from sinus or nasal infections.

This may be far off from what you are experiencing, but my homeopathic doc said this could sometimes be caused by having too many heavy metals in your body. May be something to think about if you eat a lot of fish, especially canned tuna, or are exposed through drinking water, etc. I had the same trouble and have been taking selenium daily for the past year and no longer have this problem.

silly question, but what is smell? I have constant smell of smoke (the only word I can use to describe it). Keep in mind it's my husband who has celiac and not me; and I don't have sinus problems; had smoke smell on and off for a few years now and do not have seizure problems..... I too wondered where this was coming from.

Is it like a musty/moldy smell? I had that when I was on prednisone and discovered that I had a huge yeast overgrowth.

I've been getting this lately too. I don't know about you guys, but I smell something fruity... like one of those blueberry scented markers. I have migraines and have had seizures in the past but haven't been getting them along with the scent...

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.

      It's not uncommon to experience some bleeding with hemorrhoids but I doubt enough to materially effect your iron levels. About your constipation. Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? 25-30 grams per day is the adult recommendation. Eggs and chicken have zero fiber. One medium apple or one average banana will have about 3 g. of fiber.

A serving of oatmeal will have 3-4 g. Just to give you an idea. It's harder than you think to get 25-30 g of fiber. You have to plan for it and work at it. Getting plenty of hydration is important as well.
