Hi everyone,

Had this problem since Feb..have been to the drs and he said Post nasal Drip due to lots of clear phlem in my throat giving me the urge to cough and clear my throat. Went away quite happy and within a week or so had almost gone and thought that was the end of it. Here we are nearly in may and its been there on and off since then.

When its bad i feel like i have a heavy irritated chest which everytime i breath tickles and i need to cough or clear my throat, the top off my back aches and if i take a deep breath i have a weird gurgling sensation imbetween by breasts; im not bringing anything up. It doesnt bother me all night but on waking i feel like iv'e got a heavy cold and my nose is almost always full off snot; and on one occasion my eyes and nose run all day.

This can almost stop for up to a week, and low and behold it starts again. Can excersize no problem and dont feel worse or gasp for breath afterwards or during.

Im at the end of my tether now and my cancer fears are at an all time high, my husband says to go to the drs to put my mind at rest; but im scared to death he'll say to go for xrays etc, i'll be convinced he thinks its something serious.

Just wanted to get things off my chest and hopefully hear from anyone who has had this or has post nasal drip and the symptoms i have mentioned, and has had it for weeks or months at a time. Would appreciate any tips on how to deal with this if it is PND!

Thankyou for taking the time to read,
