constant clear,thick, throat mucus

Hey did you ever find what was causing your problem and how to fix it? I have been coughing up clear mucus for years now and it is so frustrating. Goes away when I fall asleep but like you it's back first thing in the am. Nothing has helped me either and I am hoping someone has the magical cure. Thanks for listening, Deb

Hey I have the same issues you do and were wondering if you were ever able to find out what is was and cure it?
Thanks for listening.... Deb

I too have this thick mucous in my throat....comes around the bottom of my gum line or through tooth. Has to continuously use teeth and tongue to extract it from mouth. If I don't, it will choke me like something had gone down the wrong pipe. Worse at night....This has gone on for years! I have gone to several ent's, gastros, rheumatologists, oral surgeons, dentists to no avail. It's driving me crazy....cannot be around people much because they look at me strangely when I try to eradicate the thick stuff from my mouth.....it's like a non-ending string that seems to go all the way to my stomach. Sometimes it gathers in the corner of my mouth and forms white rims. PLEASE HELP!!!!! Never smoked or drank. Tried everything. Sometimes it comes in form of tiny membranes, sometimes thick white stringy, stinky mucous.

I need help with this myself. I have lived all my life with a very weak immune system... I should probably be in a bubble.I have taken all sorts of medicines, antibiotics and vitamins in my life. I had impetigo as a baby and when I was only 8 years old, got psoriasis which is still afflicting me and now I am 25 years old. I deal with open gashes on my feet and hands that look 80. When I began getting this throat stuff when I woke up, I assumed it was because of my disease.So did my doctors. Its not. I realized it started when I moved into another home. This home has central air, which is a system of vents that cools and heats the home. So I began turning it off during my sleeping time... which not only upset my family, Helped a little but didn't work.  We have a room fan also and I noticed this makes it worse but does not help when its turned off. We moved the fan off the floor thinking maybe its chemicals from the carpeting. That didn't change anything either. I woke up this morning and i got so gagged and chocked I almost smothered. THIS WILL KILL YOU. IF YOU CAN'T BREATH YOU CAN SMOTHER AND IT CAN ALSO HURT YOUR BRAIN. By the way, this morning I threw up for the 3rd time coughing it out since I have had this which has been 2 years now. You can have strokes from this if you have to do this every morning people. Its dangerous, more so then any of you are acting. This could kill you. Don't let doctors and family think otherwise. I pulled a spot on the top right part of my scalp trying to get this stuff out of my head. Sometimes I get head aches and it hurts in that same spot like I re-injured it. There is only one thing that had helped me and I want another way to treat this as drinking this every day or every other day is just gross tasting. Maybe someone can help find a way with this or can handle it daily. I know after this morning I am going to start this again...sadly.  I put 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass with 1 teaspoon of blackstrap molasses. Fill the glass with water and mix these 2 in with the water. Then I use a straw so the acidity doesn't ruin my teeth and i try and drink it past my taste buds.  1 glass usually stops the stuff for a day or 2, but I have to keep doing it or it comes back. This is a natural cure for people who have joint problems... I originally needed this natural cure for my psoriasis but when I realized how well it helped my throat stuff I decided its a very well rounded cure... if not gross tasting. Some people like it but not I so if anyone finds a way to make this tasty please let me know.Good luck to all of you and if you are suffering try this one day. Don't give up. We are well made machines that can handle a lot.

I am going through the same problem, it all started when I got bronchitis, when that pAssed it left me with a never ending drip that's goes down my throat. I can't stop hacking up white mucus I'm 30 it started when I was 28 and is ruining my life. I also took mucinex and just about everything eles but nothing helps. I'm pretty sure something is going on with us and I wouldn't wish this on anybody

Alright guys. :-D I am back. 2 days after my last post. I tried the 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of blackstrap molasses.I drank 1 glass, right after I posted my first post here. Today I woke with no mucus at all! I didn't have to cough, or hock up anything!  Its been more then a full day and I am still mucus free. I am going to not drink it again to see how long it takes for the mucus to start coming back. When It does I will re-post, for the last time to let you guys know how I am doing. I almost died from the mucus so I will take a wild tasting drink to get better. The drink also stopped pain I was having in my ovary after my last period. Go figure! The Apple cider vinegar and molasses drink are truly life savers. It seems to me we have an imbalance in PH my friends.

Today it started coming back. Not near as bad as it was. So if you have a PH imbalance, perhaps you should try the 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of molasses in water. If that doesn't help, the next day , try a glass of water with 1 teaspoon of bakingsoda, because you are probably to alkaline. Don't eat or drink anything within 30min to an hour after drinking one of these. I am going to be drinking this pcv & molasses drink every 2 days. You may also consider fixing your diet during this time to work with this treatment. My problem is I drink mountain dew daily, I have to stop that. One example that helped me understand was that of what happens to a fish if its put in water that is lightly too acidic. I had a fish once "Danio" That got a terrible fungal infection.The fish started ticking like the fungus was starting to cause neurological issues. I put the fish in water with the smallest drop of tea tree oil I could get into the water. The PH was risen by the tea tree oil and the fish began to release snot like mucus, covering its body. The fungus and ticks the fish had went away in less then a min, and I slowly started replacing water with normal water. once I got the PH the fish was in to normal, I put it back in its tank and that fish lived for 2 years after that. So remember all, Mucus = wonky PH.

Tap is NOT fine.

How are you doing? Its been a few yrs since ur post. Did you get the problem fixed?

We can only hope we will find a cure one day.

I produce so much mucus every day I wonder where it comes from. Every time I eat or drink it produces so much I choke on it.
yes and I sleep on my right side and wake every two hours choking and wanting to clear my nose. Have taken every cure going to no effect . Begining to think it is psychological since it seems to get worse by thinkiong about it.

I am on a course of reflux tablets. WATCH this space.

i have never taken mucenix and i have had it for 2yrs.

I have the same problem clearing my throat. It gets bad when i drink or eat anything cold. I have been to the drs. all they say it is alergis i know it is not. It is very bad. I have to chew gum. I wish this can stop or find out what is wrong. Some days it is really bad i have to go to bed so i cannot bother anyone.,

I got told it was a nasal drip from doctor from i was a child i still have it at 28.they said about removing the aninoids i just left it.its never improoved though.i also suffer from allergies to dust,pollen etc and this triggers it to my ears its a nightmare.

I had my septum straightened but, the ENT doc also removed my tonsils and my uvula (the thing hanging in the back of your throat) which I did not authorize. That was in 2007. As soon as they removd the cotton from my nose, the very next day I started having excessive saliva and mucous, to where I was spitting it up for over 8 hours a day into a garbage can from my bathroom. I went back to the ENT and his answer was, " Oh it will stop as quickly as it started". That was 8 very long years ago. They sent me to the Mayo Clinic and at least six doc's put that came a tube up my nose, even though the doctor the previous week had already done it. They said the sphincter mussel wasn't working and they said surgery would take care of the problem. Well after running up my bill, they changed their mind and told me I would have to learn just to swallow it. Like I haven't been trying for 8 years. years. I have tried all kinds of things and nothing has worked. And your right, it completely ruins your social life ( I have become a recluse in my own home. And to top it all off, off from the acidity over time, ruined the roots and I have had to have all of my teeth pulled! So, So I am with you, there has got to be something out there that works. It changes your whole life. Good luck my friend and if you find something that works please post it and I will do the same.l
