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.
