I noticed that whenever I drink fluids or eat anything I always end up having to cough or clear my throat due to excess mucous. I am not sick or anything I do have allergies, but I don't have post nasal drip. I am unsure what could be causing me to clear my throat after eating. What should I do?

Well normally I just eat oatmeal in the morning with water, then at lunch I just have a small snack of fruits and for dinner I usually have meat with potatoes and green beans and I still drink water. 3 Years ago I did drink a lot of soda, but I finally got out of that habit. Still I don't know why I have excess mucous.

Hmm. Well I just had a swallow test done, I haven't gotten the results yet. It could be laryngitis reflux since I do have GERD. I use to drink so much soda, but I had quit that 3 years ago. I was given Prevacid it kind of help out a little.
