A member asked:
Lately after eating i get phlegm-like fluid in throat, cough a bit and get palpitations sometimes, not sure if related. any causes of these symptoms?

Phelgm in throat: Your symptoms are suggestive of gastro-esophageal reflux disease (gerd). Speak to your physician (p) about it. If you have no physician, consider taking prilosec, 20 mg daily. If that does not help, see a p for a diagnosis and treatment plan. Good luck.
