I m 56,M,went to a retreat in Ar. and after a month or two of being full of energy and almost forgetting to eat at all , sense of smell and taste have deteriorated. Have lost 56 lbs in 5 months. Eat very little and that has caused constipation due to so few bowel movements. Excess salvia and spitting,never hungry,nose runs when trying to eat,food feels like never making it to my stomach.Sometimes spit it back up but not like vomiting.No problem with liquids or chicken noodle soup or ensure. 5 9 tall now 140lbs and never had any serious medical problems. I smoke too much and drink a couple six packs of beer a week.
