You have a really good sence of smell. I smell death coming on.. the same sicky sweet smell. I smelt it when my dog ate chocolate 2&3 days before she died. I remember smelling it on my Grandma and I just know what it smells like I don't know.....

I can smell it too. I would also describe it as 'sickly sweet'....but also like a warm, rotting 'root cellar' kind of smell.

I can also smell acidosis (high blood sugar).....and if someone is getting sick, I can smell it on thier breath. Yes...I have an extremely strong sense of smell that has only increased as I have gotten older.

I always knew I was sensitive, but after getting into the medical field and working in an ER for years, I honed the skill and began to realize just WHAT I was smelling. There are certain illnesses that as soon as I go into a room with the patient, I know they have it. Some of these things are obvious to many people with a good sense of smell....but for me it is very heightened. Illnesses such as:

high blood sugar
chrones disease
certain types of cancer
internal bleeding (if it's in the bowels...the digested blood has a VERY strong odor..I can smell it even if they haven't passed it)
bladder infection
MRSA (advanced)
Fever (I can smell acetone on the breath. I usually only notice this with family members because I don't get close enough to anyone else)


If someone is terminally ill....they just have a certain odor. I imagine it depends on what they are sick with, but whatever the reason, there is a smell I associate with it. Much like the cancer smell, but not as strong.


Believe it or not...doesn't matter to me. People working with me thought I was a bit odd at first, but after I was right a number of times they started listening to me. I can usually smell high blood sugar once it is 300 or higher and I usally guessed the number to whithin 20 points or so...until it got high enough and then it was just too hard to tell. Sometimes the smells are so overwhelming that I would nearly gag and no one else could even smell it. But it is real, I have backed up my observations with medical tests and diagnosis.

I believe you. I doubt your gift is much use as a diagnostic tool, though; the condition would probably have to be well advanced before you could perceive it. It sounds more like a cross to bear than a gift, really. You have my sympathies.

The reason I believe you is that I, too, have a funny olfactory gift. Like sir_chancelot who posted earlier, I, too, can smell the ladies:

When my wife was alive, I could smell her and know several days before she started her period.

Actually, I think the smell is strongest in the day or two immediately preceding.

Bingo. I feel the same as you. We need to learn our own senses. We have never been taught of the gifts we have. We only know what we've been told.
