Smelling Cigarettes even though I don't smoke

[Guest buspar queen]

I think I really need to register with this groovy site...and change my "name" I don't think I need to identify myself by the drugs I take...I am more than the drugs I take. 

But speaking of the drugs I take...

I am smelling cigarettes even though I don't smoke cigarettes (tobacco in general).  I smell them in my house, in my car, in my office (all of which are non-smoking).  I don't smell them all the time, but often enough to make me write to you guys....

Oh, the drugs...do you think they may be the reason I am smelling things that aren't there?

120 mg buspar

25 mg zoloft

4 mg gabitril

xanax .25mg as needed

zomig for migraines

zanaflex for premigraine and postmigraines

do you tend to notice the smell of cigarettes more when you're about to have a migrane? smelling things that aren't there can be a signal of temporal lobe weirdness, and though it may be related to migrane aura, it's something you'd want to have checked out. i'd give the doc a call.

I second getting it checked out.

migraine aura? I get migraine with a hell of an aura a few times a year.

Also if you have a sinus infection you can smell strange things that aren't there.

Hey thanks!  I appreciate the feedback.  I will be going to my doc soon and will ask about it.
