I'm not sure about the problem with the
mucus in your lungs.. Have you tried
taking an expectorant to get it out?
As for the acid reflux.. Make sure you
get that looked at!! I say this because
I was diagnosed with asthma and several
months later had major problems with acid
reflux. I went to the doctor and it was
confirmed I had gastric reflux disease..
Well one of the side effects is
asthma-like symptoms because even if you
don't realize it the acid is getting in
your lungs. I went on prevacid and have
not had problems with "asthma" ever since.
