Q: My Sons Throat Doesn't Feel Normal

:?: my now 7 year old has had this problem for 22 months. He will out of the blue tell me his throat doesn't feel normal(no pain) than he stops eating, drinking, speaking and swallowing. He than vomits moucus for a day or two and is usually fine. On 3 occasions though the moucus was so thick that it interfeared with his breathing and he was hospitalized. He has seen 18 different doctors during the last 20 months and no one can tell me what it is. These symptoms last year occured every 3 weeks but now it's every other week. He had his tonsils and adenoids removed 8 months ago buit that didn't help either.

Asthma?
Have you looked into it? I was diagnosed with asthma when I was 12. They just thought it was a cold of some kind. Asthma can cause a lot of what you were describing. Inhalers can open up the air ways and break down the moucus enabling him to cough it up. There are alos inhalers that can prevent this from happening at all. You may want to look into it if you haven't already. Good luck!
