Can post nasal drip cause sleep choking syndrome?
It is highly possible that post nasal drip can be affecting the way that you breathe hile you are sleeping. Post nasal drip can cause an obstruction and a blockage in your air passage way. It is also very likely that a person that has post nasal drip has sinus congestion which further obstructs the air passage ways. This can cause snoring and even sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a condition that occurs when you have difficulties breathing when you are sleeping. it can havea signficant impact on your life as it disrupts your sleep and can lead to serious health risks. You should treat your post nasal drip in order to avoid these problems. I know of two products that help treat post nasal drip- sinuswars2 and mucinex. There are probably many more, which your pharmacist should be able to help you with.

Yes if you have an infection. When you go to bed try proping up two pillows so you are laying on your back or side and allowing the nasal drip to hit the back of your throat. Drink lots of water and keep a glass of water by your bedside. Nasal drip can cause snoring to dry mouth and thus bacteria forms. It's best to see your doctor and get something for it.

Can you take Levocetirizine with Zyrtec?
In my case, the answer is yes. I have asthma, and seasonal allergies. I have been on claritin for years, but this year i have had significant nasal allergies that the claritin hasn't prevented, such as post nasal drip, which then causes congestion and asthma flare ups. So my Pulmonologist just prescribed Atepro nasal spray to be taken daily along with claritin.

What does it mean when you have fluid building up in the back of your throat but you cant cough it up?
The liquid that is building up at the back of the throat is actually mucus (sometime referred to as phlegm). This symptom is known as post nasal drip. Post Nasal Drip results due to your body being unable to get rid of mucus regularly, usually due to nasal or sinus congestion. Thus the mucus is forced down the back of the throat. When the mucus become trapped in the sinuses/nose it gets thicker, and it is this thicker tenacious mucus that is getting stuck on the back of your throat. You can try mucinex or sinuswars2 to treat this problem. Post Nasal Drip foten also causes throat irritation, throat infection and chronic coughs.
Could having sinus cause you to spit up blood?
It is possible that you could spit up blood if you have post nasal drip and your mucus membranes are damaged. Basically post nasal drip is the drainage of mucus down the back of the throat because your sinuses are congested. Thus the body is unable to control the production and flow of mucus. Many people cough up this mucus as it bothers their throat and can even lead to a sore throat. So when your mucus membranes are damaged they can bleed, normally this would lead to a nose bleed, but if the sinuses are congested the blodd can drain down the back of the throat (post nasally) with the mucus. I would definitely sugest that you treat your post nasal drip, sinus congestion and damaged mucus membranes. You can visit sinuswars.com for more information on the three conditions. Or alternatively you can visit sinus-pro.com
What is post nasal drip?
Nose and throat glands continually produce one to two quarts of mucus a day. This moistens and cleans the nasal membranes, humidifies air, traps and clears inhaled foreign matter, and fights infection. Although mucus is usually swallowed unconsciously, the feeling that it is accumulating in the throat or dripping from the back of the nose is called post-nasal drip. Post-nasal drip can be caused by excessive or thick secretions by throat muscle or by swallowing disorders.
