So, I've been going through several stages of mucus overload, first in the chest, I had the worst, juiciest cough I ever remeber, then it went to my nose...
and yesterday is the weirdest and I'm hoping to hear back some thoughts.
So I woke up with a headache and feeling stuffy. I have been using netti pot some evenings while going through all this. I noticed early in the day that I was experiencing a frequent post-nasal-drip thing, but more like liquid snot would pour down my throat when I would lift my head or turn it to the side. Like I said, I have never experienced this before, I could feel stuff going down my throat when I moved my head. In addition, my nose would be intermittently stuffy and extrememly runny. We are talking, soaking 3 kleenixes in moments. If I bent down (to tie my shoe) it would drip right out. If I blew my nose, I would soak a kleenix then more would "loosen up" and I'd need to blow again and again...
I would say most of it was yellowish with a tint of greenish btw.
I kept thinking it must be alergies, I've never really admitted I have any, but I clearly do at times, and this year is said to be one of the worst, and its been windy a lot. I was outside the whole day during all this.
Anyway, it was scaring me a bit, as it kept feeling like I was having a bloody nose, and even when I realized it wasn't, then I wondered why I was gushing with liquid snot.
Thanks for your thoughts on this!
As an update from yesterday, I'm now back to the "lots of mucus/snot" in the nose, but not having the liquid flow stuff.
