My ENT referred me to pulmonary specialist in which I m still awaiting to be seen. In meantime when he put the camera down thru my nose he said I have really bad excessive mucus sitting at too of lungs and causing blockage all thru my passages. I ve had chronic bronchitis all my life that I recall and recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Very hoarse voiceovers in and out. Mainly out these days. Quit smoking after 20 years of smoking as of last year in May, so little over a year now... But I can t breathe for nothing. And the constant coughing is hurting my throat and weakening my oxygen intake. How can I was this until my appointment?? Mucus is very hard and dry when I am able to hack little pieces up. Need to break it down.. Help! Please
