Advantage, smelling strange smells can be an aura either by itself or preceding a seizure. I hope it isn't the cause in your case!

Like you, I have a very keen sense of smell. It's God's little joke to give women a better sense of smell than men have.

Maybe it's your upper lip that smells?

Well, I know you read my smell story yesterday. Could it possibly be from one of the members of your household? I live with 3 males and a big dog and sometimes they alone are the cause of a stench in my house, that might account for the fact that it disappeared. Maybe they just aired out while you were looking. And yes the smell of death is not over exaggeration when it comes down to it, especially after we have taken the dog with us to the bogs to go berry picking.
Otherwise, good luck! It's not a fun thing to try and figure out sometimes, but I really hope that its not a precursor to a seizure as you mentioned. I hope you feel better too!

I hadnt considered that. You could very well be right. I turned down the vicodin yet again for this dumb knee and went on tramadol.. which does NOTHING and lowers your seizure threshold. Ugh.. Either that or Im tracking a zombie squirrel... I think I prefer the seizure.
Yes, concerning traditional female roles.... not only to we have a better sense of smell, BUT we do the laundry.
