No pipe smoke in few days. I guess that meant I didn't get my quality times. Was already tired and stressed. Was talking to my wife and I couldn't speak.. I sounded really weird. Couldn't form words. Sound was coming out, I knew what I wanted to say, but still strange sounds coming out. Nope, it wasn't stroke or migraine. Just really tired and stressed. After sleeping for 7 hours, I'm fine. Then thinking about it, I didn't have my pipes in few days. I think not pipe smoking is bad for the health!

I feel your pain. I haven’t had a pipe or cigar since July 13th. I tested positive for covid even though I’m fully vaccinated and haven’t been able to smoke. Still no taste or smell. Smoking a pipe or cigar is like puffing tasteless hot air. Not a lot of pleasure in it.

yesterday my bus was 20 minutes late so I didn't have enough time even for a short smoke before work. I wasn't really right and ready until after first break when I got to stroll and smoke a decent vanilla aromatic. Found a cool little area behind the building.

I'm new to this forum, so forgive me if this subject has been overly discussed.
I had covid in February, and lost my sense of taste etc until the end of June. Just recently the same thing happened, and I can't taste any tobacco other than a straight Va. And I can only taste them in the back of my throat. (If that makes any sense) i guess I'm going to wait to smoke my other blends, and hope my sense of taste returns. Had anyone had a similar experience? It's really a strange, frustrating experience.

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply. I just bought a bunch of new tins to try. I guess I'll have to wait to open them until I'm back to normal.
I fill your pain. It took about 3 weeks before my taste buds were somewhat normal. I also had got five or six new blends I'd never tried before in and a new pipe to break in and all I could do is sit there and look at them LOL
