LOSS OF SENSES FOR TASTING AND SMELLING (HELP!)

[DEE]

I just joined this site today in desperation to find someone who as any information about what is behind the loss of being able to taste or smell. I am in desperate need of information to help my Mom. She has had surgery, changed her diet, tried acupunture, NAET,herbs and various other supplements (ex: Noni and Body Balance and the like). Nothing has worked for her except surgery and its always been a temporary fix at best. (and of course way too risky!) I would be interested if someone out there has had this same issue and what they did to help themselves (cure). Please help! Can you imagine going thru the last 15 years with everything just tasting like nothing (cardboard). Its been very depressing. We so appreciate any suggestions from anyone. God bless those that can help others. ( :
