Phlegm in my throat and post nasal drip after Covid

Super helpful treatment protocol. I'm also convinced that this is a mast cell over activation problem.
Interestingly, years ago I developed anaphylaxis after running in very cold weather, it's mast cell mediated. I wonder if we have pre-existing risk factors for mast cells overactivation that COVID then set off.
I will try your protocol and get back to you. Thank you for sharing.

Peter, you’re the same one I am certain that got me going on the cromolyn sodium a couple years ago! That led me to Allergy/ Immunology where I discovered the liquid that I paired with Famotidine to clear up my gastric/ esophageal ulcers (PPI allergy, as rx’d by GI, I’m certain either caused or prolonged the mess).
After that I self referred back to a different ENT which is where I got started on the current long-term low-dose Azithromycin therapy. Just completed wk#4.
As for your thoughts and theory I think you’re right. I have 4 daughters and 1 sister all with auto immune disorders. Immediately after Covid I did test ANA + but the FU 5-6 moths later was neg so I was dismissed.
After having been away from this group for quite some time I’ve seen that a number of us keep some kind of an eye on it which keeps us from feeling all alone! Although also tells that we continue to struggle with it. I am much improved compared to then.
Good luck…and hope we can leave the forum permanently at some point!
