Q: flem in throat

I have had the sensation of having flem in my throat all day, and always having to clear my throat.  Sometime nothing can be spit out and when I do spit it white and sticky.  I have had every test under the sun done.  Anybody have suggestions??

Thank you for your question and welcome to AnxietyConnection.com.

 

I am not a medical professional and would not be able to give you medical advice.

 

I am sorry that I do not have an answer for you. Have you been to see a Ears, Nose and Throat (ENT) specialist? I would think that would be the best doctor to help you find the cause of this.

I have been living with anxiety symptons for over a year and I have a similar problem. I went to an Allergist and had a full allergy test done but I have no allergies. The doctor told me to stay away from dairy products because I probably have developed a sensitivity to them (I'm 34 yrs old). I use Mucinex to help with the mucus, drink soy milk, and eat gluten-free bread. I still have mucus but it's easier to live with.
