Phlegm in my throat and post nasal drip after Covid

Sorry if my other post posted. I messed up 🤦🏼♀️
But no. I don’t have asthma. I have no issues breathing unless I’m stopped up. Then I use the awful netti.
My daughter has asthma and eczema. Her whole life almost. But even as a smoker (on a small degree) I take a breathing test every year and I pass with flying colors. I do better than my doctor does. She doesn’t smoke. My lungs are good too.
I thought I may of gotten that smoking thing. COPD? But nope. 🙏🏻. I can’t take antihistamines either. I have RLS. It irritates it. So I have to use a nasal spray. Even Allegra bothers me.
I’ve had a deviated septum repaired and 2 of the balloon surgeries done before Covid. I had horrible sinus infection. But never this bad of post nasal drip.
I have no idea if I’m a candidate for the surgery someone mentioned earlier about freezing the nerves.
But would that help with acid reflux? If that is one cause? So many variables!

@coachmary you know all of my PFTs were normal too. Gosh I think this discussion was quite awhile back. Anyway a year or more after Covid I was tested for allergies and discovered I developed a slew of them, both food and environmental that I’d never had before. Weird but not uncommon I’m told. I always react with upper respiratory phlegm and use the inhaler occasionally to clear it. I was also extremely dry and excessively thirsty. The interesting diagnosis I ended up with is Sjogren’s.

By the way. I know several people in real life that has developed asthma and worse. One of my best friends is on Oxygen.
