I have a tightness in my throat and blocked sinuses (nose isn't runny). It feels like I can't catch my breath and I even wake up during the night because it feels like I'm suffocating, my head spins. I have the hiccups when I get up in the mornings?

When I swallow, it feels like there is something stuck in my throat, also when I eat a meal it feels like its not going down and its just sitting at the bottom of my throat. When I take a deep breath it feels tight in my chest.

If I swallow my throat becomes very tight, but if I don't I become dizzy, mucus blocks my airways block from mucus and I cannot take a full breath in.
