Candyse: Interesting question, as far as I know there has not been any literature about the loss of smell or taste and OT. You are the first person that has reported this experience with OT. It has been noted that people with PD have a below normal sense of smell. Since you stated " you have suddenly lost both your sense of smell and taste" I would check with your doctor. Perhaps there is another health issue that is causing this problem.
