I lost my sense of smell and taste about 4 years ago from using ZiCam cold remedy (spray). For anyone reading this that still has theirs, DON'T USE IT! I'm working on a device to revive smell in some whose olfactory still has basic function. The zinc in ZiCam burns off the receptor cells and you're pretty much done after that. I'm hopeful. I just need funding for research. Anyone have a clue how to get it?

My sister has also lost her smell from using Zicam. It has been horrible. Have you found any help? Has you smell improved? Have you tried legal action?
