I know my urine can smell different when levels are high, not sure why, almost like I have eaten asparagus when I haven't!

Have you tried aiming downwards?

Seriously, this is very strange and I've never heard of it. I tried googling under several related topics and found nothing. Good luck in finding a cure, it must be dreadful! :(

This could be where you live, Something in the air that gets to you and not others, a bit like hay fever.
If you are in a a small town or village,the farms may be using sprays etc; that affect you.
Best see your GP or ENT, as there may be a sinuses or tonsils infection.

Keep in touch with the outcome of this unusual smell.

Roy, :)

If you are doing low carb like atkins, this can be a side effect

I am pleased to have been the source of mirth on this occasion, hopefully providing a bit of light relief to what is surely an extremely frustrating condition. All the very best for the future.
