What Causes Breathing Issue?

I am having an odd breathing issue. While I am able to actually breathe in and out fine, I am constantly having this forced need to make this odd rumbling in my throat. Sometimes it is a deep grating rumble, sometimes it is a more sharp, higher pitched 'beep' of sorts. If I focus on not doing it, I can hold off for several minutes, but otherwise it is a constant occurance, happening after few seconds. While not painful, it is extremely irritating. It has been ongoing for about 2 - 3 weeks.
