Brief Answer:
It would be difficukt!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

With the long duration that you have reported, am concerned regaining your sense of taste would be very unlikely. I am so sorry for this unfortunate event. I will recommend that you don't seek any aggressive medical interventions as this would most likely not bring about any significant difference.

Once more, am sorry. Be calm and don't be aggressive because very little can be don to help at this point. I hope this helps and I wish you well.
