----------------------------------------------------------- New Message on Pituitary Chat
----------------------------------------------------------- From: Willard1H Message 2 in Discussion Yep, I'd say olfactory hallucinations are almost universal with us on the PitChat board. Maybe the best discussion of it is by Dr. Douglas Hoffman on his doctorhoffman.com website, "Phantom Smells." He correctly identifies brain tumor as one prime cause, and adds other possible suspects. "Q: I constantly smell odors that aren't really there. I can't pinpoint what the odor is, but the sensation is real. What would cause this?" Dr. Hoffman's blog, Wax, Boogers, and Phlegm, also covers the subject. If you want a more technical, scientific discussion, here's one at the Otolaryngological Archives. I tell about my phantom smells experience on my blog, Brain Tumor: First Person, "the Smelly smells Of something That smells -- Smelling What's Not There." You're not alone. Cruise these message boards and you'll find lots of us are experiencing your problem.
