Hi everyone,
Yesterday and today I noticed I cough up this white mucus. It feels so thick and it takes me a while to get it out. Many many coughs. Drinking water helps to get it out sooner.
Yesterday I coughed up some when I first woke up and didn’t have any throughout the day. This morning the same thing, I coughed some up upon waking up.
I’ve been dealing with an annoying cough since January after having COVID. Some wheezing maybe once or twice a month. But I also have chronic allergies to pollen and dust mites. I take an allergy pill every night. I also sleep with my humidifier on.
Any ideas what this could be? I suspect I have asthma but I got tested 4 years ago using a pulmonary function test but it came back clear. I also did a chest X-ray back in February that was clear too. I speak with my doctor tomorrow. I might request another chest X-ray.
Thank you.
