I have the same problem. The doctors said no alcohol, caffeine, coffee, other. After years being off all plus no soda, no sugar, and exercising. I still every morning same time mucus down the throat enough to gag me constantly some time worse than other days. I have tried all the drug muscinex, and others.. Nothing works same symptoms daily. It's literally like the mucus is trying to clog my bronchial tubes. I have had X-Rays, MRI's, blood tests, nothing shows up. I am beginning to think it's VooDoo!... LOL! IT does suck. I feel like living like Darth Vader in a suit and isolated environment. I am sure it's all caused by environmental factors and pollution from cars, aircraft (fossil fuels) businesses air pollution (chemical plants), bio such as plant life, (pollen, mold spores, and other goo) that is predominate in the local environment.

Mucus in the throat, was told I had sinusitis thick mucus which was worse at night , stopped me breathing, was awful fighting for my breath sat up for three weeks my face was swollen all my teeth ached and very bad headache, cut out dairy tried herbal tea steam inhalation, didn't seem to help on my third lot of antibiotic,s praying it works. I never thought sinusitis would last so long and be so painful

dr. jamie koughman is tops in her field and you may be suffering from LPR. she has written two best-selling books on the subject. on the site there are videos (left hand side) which will answer many of your questions. you can also access her on youtube by putting in her name and "sinus." her blog has a world of information. many of us have been misdiagnosed. LPR is silent reflux and sinusitis is often a result. i had severe, debilitating pnd and have been on her detox diet for two weeks (strictly ). this unending condition has improved 75% so far without meds. she also recommends the meds to use should you choose.

i was to four ent's with no help. i am so thankful i found her information. not easy to stay on this diet but there is enough to eat and, at the point i was, i would have eaten dog food if it helped.

Hey guys i have the same issue for 4 years i am constantly trying not to gag infront of people and its made me lose weight and kinda get depressed. I tried going gluten free and it does help as long as you dont flare it up.i notice any stress also brings these symptoms back for me. also stay away from acidic foods if you can.

Thank you for posting this. My son has struggled with this for years. The doctor said throat clearing was just a bad habit. He's had parasites for so long it's taking 3 boxes to get rid of them. Renew Life said you can do 3 boxes with 5 days off in-between. It's been very painful and exhausting. Thanks so much again.

mine is a broken nose I did not know I had and it caused my mucus to spurt up from lower neck I could swallow. no dr seems to want to touch the broken nose but it is the only thing after several ents gi drs and now a stomach peg. I hope I can get off it but the mucus just spurts out I cannot swallow it. any advice from anyone. mine sticks back in the back of throat and when it is there it prevents me from regular eating. sure wish I would have know about the broken nose earlier I am 5 yrs now and 3 yrs on peg and aged like 20 years from the weight lose. I am about to give up and just not put the peg in in feb. it is not worth the horrible days I have had due to a horrible husband. don't stay if someone hits you

Really interesting about it possibly being stress/anxiety related. I wonder if that's ultimately related to sleep disruption, since anxiety can cause this too, and I've seen other comments here about the gagging form mucus problem potentially being related to sleep apnia?
