Weird smell?
This is going to sound crazy, but you have been helpful before with advice and support. Every time I take my parent to the hospital there’s like this weird smell that like I’m assuming surrounds her, but like I don’t smell it on her person, I don’t smell in her room. I just smell when I’m taking her to the hospital in my car. But, today she didn’t even make it to the car she had to go in an ambulance, but the smell is still like in my car and I’m assuming on me cause I picked her up. It’s not like a cigarette smell. It’s not an alcohol smell. It’s not BO it’s like a weird almost like chemically smell like sanitary but also like burnt and there’s something about it, that’s almost like a homely under note of smell. I absolutely cannot figure it out, and it’s literally like a smell that comes off of her like it has to every time I’ve taken her to the hospital and brought her back from the hospital. Very different from the hospital smell. The smell gets like stuck in my car for days and gets stuck in my nose, like I have really horrific sinuses. I feel crazy and I feel like nobody else can smell this smell when I ask them to smell it. Does cirrhosis have a smell like this? Or vomitted blood? I don’t thing it’s a medicine side effect because her prescriptions have been different every time. It’s such a so oddly specific and complicated smell it and it is making me feel sick. Idk if I can stand it and her hospital visits are seemly more frequent now.
I feel like at this point maybe I’m just a freak and I can smell cirrhosis or maybe it’s just the smell or her near death passes with these hospital trips? But then why is still strong after the hospital or why can’t I smell it on a normal day to day? Normal sprays and scents don’t get rid of the smell either, it’s just so overpowering to me.
