Why Do I Persistently Have Smell Of Vomit?

I m 42. 6 2 and approx 17 stone. I seem to have a persistant smell of vomit, sometimes so bad that I rub menthol cream under my nose to try and disguise it. I have no history of health issues apart from being a bit overweight. No reported high blood pressure at last medical.

Psychologist 's  Response
Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your desciption. I suggest you not to worry too much. In psychology we term it obsessive disorder. You must understand it to cure it. You had that diturbing feeling once or twice and instead of ignoring it, you started to expect the feeling in similar circumstances. That made your body and mind to respond and they expect. As you are trying to find that feeling, mind automatically got programmed to give you such a feeling. That is what happening now. Ignore the feeling and within a fortnight obsession stops.

If you need more of my help in this regard, please post a direct query on this portal. I am happy to help you.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
