Scheduled for MRI of brain for ....

[Marlys]

of all things parosmia. For the past several months certain foods and other items have smelled like kerosene. This has irritated me no end because the foods that smell that way are some of my favorites like basil, Dijon mustard, and several others. So I mentioned this to my new PCP who said that this is frequently caused by meningiomas that are deposits of calcium. So, although my oncologists are not inclined to do scans, etc. without cause, I guess I am going to get one anyway.
Since I don't have any other neurological symptoms, I am not really concerned about mets, but would really like to get my "smeller" straightened out.
Have any of you experienced this?
Thanks for listening.
