Hello otter2154, Your symptoms are like mine in some ways. The inhalers do not work for me at all, and make the throat feel like it is closing up. Lately, I am up at night every 2 hours nebulizing and deliberately coughing to try and loosen the mucous. It gets much worse at night. It is always there, even after coughing up as much as possible. It clears enough at that point so I can take a deep breath and get back to sleep, then it builds back up again within a few hours. I have a hospital bed I bought used (a blessing from God) with it set at an almost sitting position. I am trying everything there is to solve this. There was not one thing wrong with my lungs before I had radiation for throat cancer. The doctor says there is no way the radiation treatments caused this. Please read my posts on here if you want to, to see the rest of my symptoms. God bless you, and good luck.
