A member asked:

Every morning i wake up with a sore throat as if i have the flu, but during the course of the day i'm fine. is there any reason for this?

Morning sore throat: Couple of thoughts. You may be allergic to something in the home, so that you’re being triggered overnight and not during the day when you’re out of the house. You may have reflux (GERD), which tends to be worse overnight when we’re lying down flat as opposed to during the day when we’re upright.
