I (M26) had covid ~2 years ago. It was like a bad flu, but I recovered after a few weeks. Problem is I experienced almost complete anosmia (loss of smell) & aguesia (loss of taste). My senses recovered in the weeks after covid but only to about 15-25% of what it used to be. After about half a year I went and saw an ENT and he said it should recover within a year.

It's been 2 years now with no improvement. Does this fall under the classification of low severity long covid? Other than this, I don't think I have any symptoms. My cousin (F26) was diagnosed with long covid but hers is completely destroying her body and she is close to death. Just want to know if I belong in this community. Than
