Answers:
the brain is one of the least understood parts of the human body, everyone's brair has different areas that control different things. No two brains are alike. There is evidence that suggests that over time, another area of the brain can take over the defective part of the brain's activity. it all depends. You will know if you get smell back, but no one can tell you ifyou will or not.
I believe you may have gotten your answer already form your doctor. If you wish to get a second opinion, get it from a physician instead of the medical amateurs at Helpde.com s.
