Hi, i'm 23, f, and I suffer from very
unpleasant case of post nasal drip, have
had it for over 6 months now. I am quite
positive that it developed due to my
former excessive use of cocaine as I often
had sinusitis and similar minor problems.
Obviously due to this condition I ceased
using the drug and also had to cut down on
my smoking, which are probably the only
good things that came out of it.
I have tried several standard procedures,
e.G. Nasal sprays, nasal wash,
anti-histamines, inhaling but nothing has
really made any difference.
It feels all the time there is something
in my throat so I have to cough all the
time as if to clear my throat, my tonsils
feel weird most of the time (tho not
inflamed or particularly sore, just...
Weird) and I can actually feel the mucus
accumulating there. When I breathe deeply
I can hear weird wheezy noises coming from
my throat (not chest), from around the
area where the cough comes from. These
noises are really the most disturbing part
of it, it's a little worse when I lie down
like to go to sleep and lie on my back,it
feels like if something was partially in
the way of breathing and because I hear
this strange noise I often can't go to
sleep for hours.
I was just wondering if anyone on here
knows anything about this or knows of
similar experience and could therefore
advice or at least offer some peace of
mind that this is normal for this
condition.
Is there any connection with pnd and later
developing throat cancer?
I have not seen an ent yet but will soon,
i've been to ordinary doctors but they
just prescribed me standard medicines
mentioned above which failed to help so
far.
Any advice or idea will be deeply
appreciated!
Thanks a lot,
avine
