@rdt94 The constant junk in your throat is so terrible. Find a good laryngologist who is familiar with and treats LPR . Maybe Use AI to find the top one in your area. If this were me I'd tell them "I'd like to be evaluated for suspected LPR caused by post-viral vagus neuropathy." They can do something called a pH-impedance test that can definitively diagnose it. LPR is also called "silent reflux" because you don't feel it happening at all. The vagus nerve is also very important for relaxing you after a stressful event, so if that's damaged it's understandable that you're feeling a little more anxiety, etc. One thing that has helped me is something called coherent breathing. You can look it up on YouTube. See if you can find that doctor that is good for you and get that test. I'm doing this in a few weeks so I can have a definite answer.

@mikedod
Thank you!!!
Looked up Vagus Nerve & Covid. Now what I have experienced for the last 3 yrs. makes sense. I always thought the virus "screwed up"
something in my throat / respiratory system.
