Description
For sample adults 18+ who discussed problems with or changes in ability to taste or smell with a doctor or health professional (TSTSMDOC), TSTSMDOCWHN indicates how long since the last time they spoke to a doctor or health professional about their problems with their ability to taste and smell.
TSTSMDOCWHN is one of several questions sponsored by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) to gather information on smell and taste disorders in adults. For more information and a complete list of these variables, see the description for TSTSMDOC.
