  1. Hi, I am a year post op, lap band. I have lost 108lbs. About two months ago, I started having this problem, have tried everything I can think of and TTOW (the webmaster from Surgically Altered Freaks) suggested I come here and ask. I got what I thought was a cold complete with the runny nose and cough. It has lasted for 2 months. I have post nasal drip that causes the thickest most gross copeous secretions. Whenever I lay down to try and sleep, within 10 to 20 min I am waking up coughing and spewing this mucous from my nose and mouth. I have talked to my PCP, my pulmonologist, my cardiologist and my nurse at my WLS office. I have been on Claritin/ zofrin/ allegra/ prednisone/ benadryl/ nyquil/ robitussin and have gotten no relief. I am eshausted. Brian (my nurse) suggested eating a cracker to help bind and take the mucous through. This worked for a moment, but still I woke up like Mount Vesuvious soon after going to sleep. Can anyone here help me?
  2. Thank you so much for your quick reply. I have tried the Neti Pot, and it worked for a bit, and I tried Afrin and it worked for a bit, but my doc doesn't want me using it. I will try getting an appointment with an ENT and see if that will do the trick. Thanks again.
