Hi guys i dont know where to post this, maybe its hypothyrodism related so ill ask here.

Hi i a Hi im Male /26yrs old/hypothyrodism taking levotyroxin 125mcg/no cough/can exercise normally and make full breaths. Right now travelling around the world. Have mild anxiety thats getting worse with this problem i have. About a month ago i started to get this feeling, that i got some phlegm stuck in my throat/left lung. Gargly feeling when i breath in. The feeling is still there daily. I dont have problems when working out or jogging. I am active daily. It stops when i sit down and when i go to sleep. It starts again when im in upright standing position or walking. It doesnt hurt or nothing. Its just this persisten feeling some fluid is foaming somewhere in my left lung or left side of throat. I cant even pinpoint location. Anybody has any ideas what i could do. I was thinking that maybe it could be GERD or something like that, since i can make full breaths and exercise.

Check out throat catarrh, which is what I have. It’s very annoying and worse first thing in the morning.

Could it be something to do with what you are eating eg milk/dairy or something else?
