hi - i've have the probem for a couple of years - i'm 70.

originally doc thought it was asthma & prescribed ventollin spray - it does help a little but only for about 30/60 min.

over the period my smell has been coming & going - he prescribed a nasal spray with no real effect.

i'm plaqued by the problem every day - during a bad episode i start to wheeze & can cough up large volumes of clear/grey sticky stringy phlegm that has a consistency similar to glue - sometimes i violently wretch attempting to clear it - it also comes down my nose but is mostly coughed up.

one thing i have noticed is that the coughing can be triggered if i get annoyed or uptight however that could just be my imagination?

anyone have similar and/or can advise?

cheers.

    Can I suggest you try Evening Primrose Oil, as it desensitises the nervous system and reduces the reaction to normal irritants. 

    Please read my recent posts to others for a more detailed description of this wonderful product. One 1000 mg capsule daily is usually sufficient to desensitise the nervous system, so the body does not react to normal irritants.

    It is a miraculous cure for hayfever, rhinitis, and sinusitis and many other allergy related problems. It is not a drug, so it has no adverse size affects.

    Try this treatment for a couple of weeks and see if it affects your problem.

    Evening Primrose Oil takes affect in about 4 hours, and lasts a further 24 hours, so results can be expected almost immediately.

    Give it a try. You may be surprised.

    Regards Ray
