You Not On Anti Inflammatory Drugs To Suppress Mucus ... As It Acidity Taste ?
No I am not on any anti Inflammatory Drugs, There is no acid taste just thick clear and salty , sometimes white, the quantity scares me sometimes it makes my midriff feel like lead if I dont get it out, its ruining my life even more than ever now , thanks for answerering me x
Give the BLF Helpline nurse a call in the morning, they are open 10am-6pm on 03000 030 555
There are so many possibilities it's difficult to try and work out what to do and what the cause may be. The nurse can probably go over symptoms, what medication you're taking, and give you some useful things to say to your GP. That could include a suggestion to send you to the hospital to be looked at, if he can't figure it out.
ok thanks gordon x
